Document Summary

This document is page 29 of a court transcript filed on March 11, 2022, from the Ghislaine Maxwell case (1:20-cr-00330-PAE). Defense attorney Mr. Everdell argues that a juror's history of sexual abuse (involving a stepbrother and a friend) is relevant to establishing bias, as it may align with victim testimony heard during the trial. The Court denies Everdell's request to ask the juror specific questions about their therapy and trauma, citing that the defense failed to propose comparable questions during the original jury selection (voir dire).
