Nov. 10 (UPI) -- Ghislaine Maxwell is planning to ask President Donald Trump for a commutation for her sex trafficking conviction related to the late Jeffrey Epstein, House Democrats said Monday.

Rep. Jamie Raskin, the ranking Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, sent a letter to Trump on Sunday seeking information about a commutation application Maxwell is allegedly preparing. Democrats on the committee said a whistleblower showed them evidence of the application, which CBS News also viewed.

The letter to Trump said that the application was "undoubtedly coming to you for your direct consideration."

"The warden herself is directly helping Ms. Maxwell copy, print and send documents related to this application."

1. She WILL succeed. Is there any way a state could charge her with anything?

Plus if she is given any type of pardon, could (when we control house again) yank her in to testify? (because if i understand things) she cannot refuse top tell the truth? She could be jailed until she agrees to talk? THIS is complete bullshit, and we have no control.

2. Florida, I imagine.

3. Well, i'm thinking she was involved in moving young girls state to state?

Not sure about that.

4. Why not?

Have a great life as a free woman who trafficked other women and raped children.

5. I'm sure if it goes through she will be ushered out of the country very quickly

Probably end up living with Andy Windsor.

6. I can picture Maga heads exploding if her sentence is commuted

Trump may do it, but it won't be until the last day he is in office unless he truly doesn't care about losing his Maga base anymore.

8. She'll be out of prison and out of the U.S. by year-end
