Quote #1
"Even if the court were to assume for purposes of today’s proceeding that she has the means that the government claims she does, it does not affect the analysis. That is to be addressed in conditions, to be addressed if the court requires it, through verifications and further proceedings before the court."Source
— defense
(A quote from the bail hearing transcript (Tr. 59) arguing that the defendant's financial means should be addressed as part of bail conditions, not as a reason for detention.)

Among other things, the defense emphasized the defendant’s family ties and residence in
the United States (Dkt. 18 at 2, 3, 12), offered to hire a private security company to monitor the
defendant (Id. at 20), noted that the defendant remained in the country and was in touch with the
Government through counsel following Epstein’s arrest (Dkt. 18 at 12-13; Tr. 49, 52-55), argued
that the defendant went into hiding to avoid a media frenzy (Dkt. 18 at 14-16; Tr. 55-56), and
argued that detention would hamper the ability to prepare a defense (Tr. 42, 67-69). Responding
to the Government’s concerns about the lack of transparency about the defendant’s finances and
six proposed co-signers, the defense specifically asked the Court to keep the proceedings open if
the Court believed additional information or a more fulsome bond would be useful to the bail
determination. (Tr. 52 (“And if the court determines that the conditions that we have proffered are
insufficient or need further verification, as long as we can have some assurance of safety and
confidentiality, we would recommend that the court keep the proceeding open, and we should be
able to get whatever the court needs to satisfy it.”); Tr. 59 (“Even if the court were to assume for
