Summary
This legal document, part of Case 22-1426, details the Government's arguments during the trial of Maxwell, focusing on the legal requirement that the criminal conduct was directed at New York. The prosecution argued that transporting victims like Jane to New York and intending for abuse to occur there was sufficient for conviction, even if the abuse itself happened elsewhere.

and specific sexual acts that took place in New York while Jane was a minor (Tr.319-20).
The Government’s summation similarly discussed these charges as encompassing conduct directed at New York. As to Count Four, the Government argued the evidence showed “Jane was transported to New York,” and Maxwell was involved in making travel arrangements. (Tr.2891 (emphasis added)). The Government also clarified that “[t]he crime happened the moment [Maxwell, Epstein, and Jane] crossed state lines,” and “to be very clear, when Epstein flew Jane to New York and Maxwell aided and abetted him, that’s enough too.” (Id.

And the Government argued that, “even though Carolyn and Annie were not sexually abused in New York . . . that is what [Maxwell and Epstein] both intended.” (Tr.2895 (emphasis added); see Tr.2895-96 (arguing that Maxwell “groomed Annie for abuse after she had already visited Epstein in New York.” (emphasis added))).
