Convicted sex offender Ghislaine Maxwell has been questioned in prison about Prince Andrew and three mystery British people in connection with the Jeffrey Epstein case.
The former socialite, who's currently in prison for sex trafficking of a minor among other counts, was interviewed by government lawyers near to the Tallahassee Federal Jail in Florida where she was serving her sentence.
The interview happened prior to her recent move to a low-risk jail in Texas this week, with the relocation motivated by Maxwell receiving death threats from rapists and murderers accusing her of being a 'snitch', according to the Daily Mail.
In the interview, Maxwell was reportedly asked about former friend Prince Andrew. The Duke always denied claims by Virginia Giuffre that she was sex-trafficked to him by Epstein when she was just 17.

Maxwell was also questioned about other Brits in the deceased financier's close circle.
While the identities of the people allegedly in cahoots with Epstein and Maxwell weren't revealed, one is believed to be a 'high-profile public figure' who had a long-running friendship with Epstein.
Another is said to have spent a lot of time at Epstein's various properties, including his private Caribbean island, his townhouse in Manhattan and his New Mexico ranch (via Daily Mail).
Two of the Brits mentioned are also believed to have flown on Epstein's private jet, Lolita Express, several times, while the third attended multiple dinners hosted by the late sex offender in New York and Palm Beach.
This is the first time that Maxwell has been formally questioned about Prince Andrew, though the content of the interview with Deputy US Attorney General Todd Blanche hasn't been disclosed.
The interview reportedly lasted nine hours, during which Maxwell was also quizzed about the likes of Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, and 'several billionaires'.
This comes after CCTV prison footage of the night Jeffrey Epstein died by suicide in 2019 was released to the public by the US Justice Department (DOJ).
Conspiracy theorists were alerted by the absence of 60 seconds from the video, with the 'missing minute' initially attributed to a CCTV camera glitch by US Attorney General Pam Bondi. More recently, however, it was suggested that the tape could have been a screen recording rather than the original footage, with the appearance of a figure in what seems to be an orange inmate uniform also raising more questions as it was initially identified as a prison officer.
