Summary

This legal document is a letter to Judge Alison J. Nathan, dated November 30, 2020, arguing for the redaction of the identities of individuals supporting Ms. Maxwell's bail application. The letter contends that public disclosure would violate their privacy and expose them to significant personal and physical danger, citing stalking by the tabloid press, physical threats, and the intense public opprobrium surrounding the case. It references legal precedent from United States v. Amodeo to support the court's power to protect innocent third parties from public scandal.
