Summary

This legal document, part of a court filing from June 15, 2022, argues against applying a sentencing enhancement for 'undue influence'. The text asserts that the evidence does not support the claim that a witness named Carolyn was unduly influenced by Epstein or Ms. Maxwell. To support this, it cites Carolyn's own testimony that she actively sought out massage appointments, recruited other minors for money, and refused offers to travel to Epstein's island, indicating her actions were voluntary.
