This document is a court transcript from August 10, 2022, detailing a legal argument over the admissibility of photographs in a trial. The prosecution, represented by Ms. Moe, argues that the photos are relevant to prove the long-term, close relationship between Ms. Maxwell and Mr. Epstein, countering the defense's claim that she was merely a personal assistant. After a brief exchange where the defense (Ms. Menninger) questions the evidence, the judge overrules the objection, allowing the photographs to be admitted.

"These photographs show their close relationship throughout time and are directly relevant."Source
"Your Honor, given the change in hairstyles, the people in the photographs are clearly aging throughout time, I think that relationship and its duration throughout time is evident from the photographs themselves."Source
