Summary

This document is page 2 of a government filing in Case 1:20-cr-00330 (United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell), filed on June 24, 2022. The Government argues that victims have a right to be heard at sentencing and opposes the defendant's request to redact victim impact statements, citing that privacy interests belong to the victims, not the defendant.
