First Lady Melania Trump was put in an uncomfortable position during a White House event. A reporter asked her about Ghislaine Maxwell, a convicted sex trafficker, and the special treatment she is reportedly getting in prison. The question came up during a news briefing where Mrs. Trump was appearing with freed American-Israeli hostages.
According to People, when the reporter brought up the “special treatment” Maxwell is said to be receiving and asked why survivors are demanding her move to a high-security prison, Mrs. Trump quickly shut down the question. She said the event had one purpose only and told the reporter, “We are here celebrating the release and the life of these two incredible people, so let’s honor that.”
