Relying on testimony from a convicted sex trafficker raises serious questions about credibility and whether this is genuine oversight or political theater. Maxwell has every incentive to deflect blame and provide unreliable information to reduce her sentence or shift responsibility potentially. Congress should focus on systemic reforms rather than seeking sensational testimony from someone with questionable motives.
