U.S. District Judge Paul Engelmayer of the Southern District of New York has said he won't unseal grand jury testimony records in the Ghislaine Maxwell case.

On Friday, The Justice Department asked two New York judges to unseal the exhibits that are related to Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein.

The judge wrote that he would not release the records because they did not answer questions that remain from the public, relating to their crimes or Epstein's death.

The judge added that the records did not reveal any new or meaningful information about the pairs crimes, going against the government's claims that they would.

Engelmayer called it 'demonstrably false', adding that the push to release the documents could be a 'diversion' plan.
