The judge questions Ms. Moe about a dispute over whether a defendant's efforts to hide were to evade authorities (indicating flight risk) or for privacy. The judge asks how the government suggests resolving this factual dispute.
This document is a court transcript from April 1, 2021, capturing a dialogue between a judge and Ms. Moe regarding a defendant's bail. The judge raises the issue of the defendant's motive for hiding—whether it was to evade authorities or for privacy from the press, especially given the public interest following Mr. Epstein's indictment. Ms. Moe argues that the motive is irrelevant; the crucial fact for the bail determination is that the defendant has demonstrated a clear ability and willingness to live in hiding.
