Summary

Specifically, Instruction No. 11 directs the jury on how to handle the six-count indictment, mandating that they consider each count independently and return a separate verdict for each. It reinforces the legal standard that a guilty verdict can only be reached if the Government proves every element of a specific charge beyond a reasonable doubt.

Instruction No. 11: Multiple Counts
As I just explained, the Indictment contains six counts. Each count charges Ms. Maxwell
with a different crime. You must consider each count separately and return a separate verdict of
guilty or not guilty for each. Whether you find Ms. Maxwell guilty or not guilty as to one
offense should not affect your verdict as to any other offense charged, unless you are instructed
otherwise.
You may only find Ms. Maxwell guilty of a particular count if the Government has
proven each element of the offense charged with respect to that count beyond a reasonable doubt.
