This document is page 39 of a defense filing (Document 97) dated December 14, 2020, in the case United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell. The defense argues that the government only pursued Maxwell as an 'afterthought' following Jeffrey Epstein's death in custody, noting that subpoenas for her financial records were not issued until August 16, 2019 (six days after his death). The text contends there is a lack of documentary corroboration for the charges, characterizing the case as relying on 25-year-old witness testimony, and urges the court to grant bail.
