Summary
This document is a transcript of a legal summation by Ms. Menninger, likely a defense attorney for Ghislaine. Menninger challenges the prosecution's case by questioning the testimony of victims like 'Jane' and 'Annie,' specifically disputing the narrative of 'normalizing' abuse and Ghislaine's presence during an assault. She also attacks the government's proposed motive—that Ghislaine facilitated abuse for financial support—and portrays Jeffrey Epstein as a manipulator who deceived everyone, including Ghislaine.
