Summary

A legal letter from defense attorney Bobbi C. Sternheim to Judge Alison J. Nathan regarding the trial of Ghislaine Maxwell. The letter argues that the government used suggestive questioning techniques on accusers, specifically citing an instance where a witness named 'Jane' changed her testimony regarding a trip to New York and seeing 'The Lion King' after pressure from AUSA Rossmiller. The defense uses this to justify the necessity of expert testimony from Dr. Loftus regarding memory and suggestive questioning.
