President Donald Trump said he would "take a look" at a pardon for convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell after the Supreme Court rejected her appeal.

CNN's Kaitlan Collins asked Trump about the possibility of a pardon for Maxwell at an Oval Office event on Monday.

"I haven't heard the name in so long," the president responded. "I can say this, that I'd have to take a look at it. I would have to take a look."

"I will speak to the DOJ," he added. "I wouldn't consider it or not consider it."

"But she was convicted of child sex trafficking," Collins noted.

"Yeah, I mean, I'm going to have to take a look at it," Trump replied. "I have to ask DOJ."
