Summary

This legal document is a page from a court filing detailing a juror's (David's) explanation for Ghislaine Maxwell's acquittal on a specific charge (count two) involving the accuser 'Jane'. David clarifies to 'The Independent' that the jury's decision was based on a lack of direct evidence that Maxwell 'enticed' Jane to travel, not on a disbelief of Jane's testimony. The document also mentions corroborating evidence such as flight logs and Maxwell's 'little black book', which listed names of 'masseuses' and Palm Beach police officers.

Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE Document 615-1 Filed 02/24/22 Page 5 of 6
Jane's story was backed up by her high school boyfriend, who
remembered being told about Epstein when they were younger.
The accuser's stories were backed up by flight logs which placed Jane on
at least one flight with Maxwell, David said.
Their stories were backed up by Maxwell's “little black book” – an address
book found in Epstein's home that listed the names of “masseuses”
including Jane and Carolyn.
David said the little black book also gave the jurors clues about how
Maxwell and Epstein had evaded accountability in the past. There were
names of several Palm Beach police officers listed on a first-name basis in
that book, David said.
“Those girls' names and phone numbers were listed next to the words
'mom' and 'dad',” he said. “Professional masseuses do not need their
parents with them.”
Many speculated that the jury chose to acquit Maxwell on count two
because that count related solely to Jane, and that Jane was less credible
than other victims.
But David told The Independent that wasn't the case.
“We simply didn't see enough direct evidence to convict on count two,”
he said. “It wasn't about not believing Jane.”
Count two was a substantive charge that required proof that Maxwell
“enticed” Jane to travel across state lines. David said there just wasn't any
direct evidence for any specific trip that Maxwell took any action to entice
Jane to get on those flights.
“I personally was willing to find her guilty on count two,” he said. “But we
all decided in the end that there wasn't enough evidence.”
David also explained that he was convinced by the closeness of Maxwell
and Epstein's relationship and the key role she played in his life.
