US First Lady Melania Trump has denied any personal connection to Jeffrey Epstein, calling the allegations “lies” and saying they must end.
She said she was never friends with Epstein and only encountered him at social events in New York.
She also said she never visited his private island or flew on his aircraft.
Trump denied any relationship with Ghislaine Maxwell, stating she had no involvement with either of them.
She added that she met Donald Trump independently in 1998. She said an email to Maxwell was only casual correspondence. She also called for public hearings so victims can give sworn testimony as scrutiny over Epstein’s connections continues.

The timing of this is weird. Melania Trump wasn’t even on the radar when it comes to Epstein. Yet she comes out and makes this statement in front of the world?
