On Wednesday, emails were released that directly contradict statements Epstein's associate, Ghislaine Maxwell, made to Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche in a taped interview designed to exonerate Trump. The emails show Trump had knowledge of Epstein's activities, and directly contradicted Maxwell's claim that she never saw Trump at Epstein's house.
Ryan Goodman, a law professor and co-editor-in-chief of Just Security, discussed the documents on CNN's "Erin Burnett OutFront."
