Summary
This document is a page from a legal filing (Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE, likely USA v. Ghislaine Maxwell) filed on July 2, 2021. It appears to be quoting a legal opinion regarding the Bill Cosby case (specifically referencing case J-100-2020 and Commonwealth v. Hicks), discussing the admissibility of 'prior bad acts' evidence and the 'doctrine of chances' to prove lack of mistake or accident in sexual assault cases. The text analyzes Cosby's modus operandi involving intoxicants and mentions Andrea Constand and 19 other witnesses.
