File Size: 757 KB
Summary

This document is a page from a legal filing (Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE) dated March 11, 2022, arguing that the jury in the Ghislaine Maxwell trial had a fundamental misunderstanding of 'Count Four.' The defense argues that the jury asked if intent for sexual activity in New Mexico was sufficient for a conviction based on 'violation of New York law,' and asserts the Court failed to properly correct this misunderstanding.
