Summary
This legal document is a letter from the U.S. Department of Justice to Judge Alison J. Nathan, dated December 19, 2021, concerning the case of United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell. The Government identifies a significant ambiguity in Jury Instruction No. 19, where the pronoun "she" could be interpreted as referring to either the defendant or the victim. To resolve this, the Government proposes that the court replace "she" with "the individual" to ensure clarity for the jury.
