WASHINGTON — Former Attorney General Pam Bondi told House lawmakers Friday that socialite and convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell should “die in prison.”

Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon told The Post following Bondi’s four-hour transcribed interview before the House Oversight Committee that the 60-year-old also declared twice that Maxwell, the accomplice and occasional girlfriend of convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, should not receive a presidential pardon.

“Females who collaborate with sex offenders are worse because they procure other victims for the sex offender,” Dhillon said Bondi had expressed.

The former AG also maintained that the 64-year-old Maxwell, who is currently serving a 20-year federal prison sentence after being convicted in late 2021 on charges including sex trafficking conspiracy and trafficking of a minor, was “very evil” and should not have her sentence commuted.

The House Oversight Committee is investigating the Department of Justice’s handling of files related to Epstein, who was found dead in his Manhattan jail cell Aug. 10, 2019, while awaiting his own trial on federal trafficking charges.

Maxwell invoked her Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination during a deposition before the Oversight Committee in February, when she appeared virtually from the minimum-security Texas prison camp where she resides.

Her defense lawyer, David Oscar Markus, said she was eager to testify that despite President Trump and former President Bill Clinton having associated with Epstein in the 1990s and 2000s, the pair was “innocent of any wrongdoing.”

“If this Committee and the American public truly want to hear the unfiltered truth about what happened, there is a straightforward path,” Markus also said. “Ms. Maxwell is prepared to speak fully and honestly if granted clemency by President Trump.”

Trump has previously been coy when questioned by reporters about whether he’s considered granting a pardon.

“I haven’t even thought about. I haven’t thought about it for months. Maybe I haven’t thought about it all,” the president said in November. “But I don’t talk about that. I don’t rule it in or out.”

The month before, Trump had said, “I will speak to the DOJ. I wouldn’t consider it or not consider — I don’t know anything about it.”

White House officials have repeatedly denied that clemency is under consideration.

The Supreme Court rejected Maxwell’s appeal of her sex trafficking conviction this past October.

In August, she had been transferred from a federal lockup in Florida to the cushier compound in Bryan, Texas, nicknamed “Club Fed.”

Then-Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche interviewed Maxwell about Epstein for two full days in July 2025, during which she exonerated Trump while purportedly naming as many as 100 known Epstein associates.
