Will Trump Pardon Diddy And Ghislaine Maxwell? Here’s His Response | WATCH

President Donald Trump did not rule out the possibility of granting pardons to Ghislaine Maxwell or Sean “Diddy” Combs. When asked during a White House signing ceremony on Monday, Trump responded, “I will have to take a look at it. I’ll speak to — I will speak to the DOJ. I wouldn’t consider it or not consider, I don’t know anything about it,” adding, “A lot of people have asked me for pardons. I call him Puff Daddy—he’s asked me for one too.” President Trump: “I have a lot of people have asked me for pardons. I call him ‘Puff Daddy’ has asked me for a pardon.” pic.twitter.com/MS5DnCr6aF— CSPAN (@cspan) October 6, 2025 Ghislaine MaxwellThe US Supreme Court has declined to hear an appeal from Ghislaine Maxwell, effectively upholding her conviction and 20-year prison sentence for sex trafficking.Maxwell’s legal team had argued that a 2007 non-prosecution agreement between federal prosecutors in Miami and Jeffrey Epstein should have shielded her from prosecution as a potential co-conspirator. However, without comment or explanation, the justices rejected her petition on the first day of the new term.Maxwell, a British socialite and former girlfriend of Epstein, was convicted in 2021 for recruiting and grooming underage girls for Epstein to sexually abuse. Epstein died by suicide in a Manhattan jail in 2019 while awaiting trial on related charges.Her lawyers had hoped the Supreme Court would revisit the controversial handling of Epstein’s earlier case, which received fresh scrutiny during the Trump administration, particularly over its reluctance to release additional investigative files.Maxwell is currently serving her sentence in a minimum-security prison camp in Texas after being transferred from a Florida facility earlier this year. With her appeal denied, her only remaining hope for release would be a presidential pardon.

The sentencing took place on Friday, October 3, following a high-profile trial that revealed disturbing details of Combs’ behavior toward his ex-girlfriends.Combs was taken into custody in September 2024 and held at a federal detention center in Brooklyn. He was convicted in July 2025 and faced up to 10 years per count.President Trump was asked on Newsmax in August 2025 whether he would consider pardoning Combs, and has then suggested he would not.“I was very friendly with him. I got along with him great. But when I ran for office, he was very hostile,” Trump said. He added that while personal feelings shouldn’t affect decisions, “when you knew someone and you were fine, and then you ran for office, and he made some terrible statements—it makes it more difficult. I’m being honest, it makes it more difficult to do.”
