Summary
This document is an introduction to a legal motion filed by Ghislaine Maxwell's defense on January 25, 2021, requesting the severance of perjury charges (Counts Five and Six) from sex trafficking charges (Counts One through Four). The defense argues that joining these counts causes substantial prejudice because the perjury charges stem from a 2016 civil defamation suit involving Virginia Roberts Giuffre, whose allegations the defense characterizes as false and financially motivated. The document contends that Giuffre is not one of the accusers in the primary trafficking counts and that introducing her testimony would improperly influence the jury regarding conduct alleged to have occurred between 1994 and 1997.
