This document is a letter from Ghislaine Maxwell's attorney, Bobbi C. Sternheim, to Judge Alison J. Nathan, filed on June 24, 2022. In the letter, Maxwell formally objects to Sarah Ransome, Maria Farmer, Teresa Helm, and Juliette Bryant being legally characterized as 'victims' under the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA) for the purpose of sentencing. The defense argues these individuals do not meet the statutory requirements, specifically regarding their age at the time of alleged abuse, the timing relative to the indictment, and proximate harm resulting from the specific federal offenses of conviction.
