Summary
A joint letter submitted to Judge Alison J. Nathan by the U.S. Attorney's Office and Defense Counsel in the case of United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell. The document outlines agreed-upon procedures and disagreements regarding the protection of witness identities during the upcoming trial, including the use of pseudonyms, voir dire protocols to screen jurors, specific jury instructions, and the use of physical binders for sealed exhibits to prevent public viewing. It includes a heavily redacted chart meant to map true witness names to their trial pseudonyms.
