Summary
This document is page 2 (filed page 6) of a defense motion filed on December 23, 2020, in the case United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell. The defense argues that the Court should grant bail because the government has conceded its case relies almost exclusively on the testimony of three unidentified witnesses regarding events from over 25 years ago, lacking the 'significant contemporaneous documentary evidence' previously promised. The defense asserts that existing documentary evidence pertains to Jeffrey Epstein rather than Maxwell, though specific government concessions on this point are redacted.
