Summary
This document is a transcript of a prosecutor's, Ms. Moe's, summation in the trial of Ghislaine Maxwell. Ms. Moe argues that the case is fundamentally about how Maxwell and her partner, Jeffrey Epstein, used manipulation, money, and their privileged status to groom and exploit vulnerable young girls from struggling families. She contrasts the small amounts of money paid to victims, like Carolyn, with the millions Maxwell received from Epstein to underscore the theme of exploitation.

Summation - Ms. Moe
said to you that this case was about manipulation, money, and
memory. And you know what? Defense counsel was exactly right,
but not in the way she meant. Not at all.
This case was absolutely about manipulation. You
learned about how Maxwell manipulated young girls, making them
believe that she was their friend, making them feel special,
all so they could be molested by a middle-aged man. And you
heard from Dr. Rocchio, an expert psychologist, and you learned
about how perpetrators manipulate their victims in a process
called grooming. The evidence in this case overwhelmingly
shows you that that's exactly what Maxwell did to these girls.
And make no mistake, this trial was absolutely about
money. The evidence showed you that Maxwell and Epstein were a
wealthy couple who used their privilege to prey on kids from
struggling families.
Let me stop and say this: I want you to think about
the few $100 that Carolyn got every time that she was sexually
abused. And I want you to think about the $30 million that
Ghislaine Maxwell got from Jeffrey Epstein. This case is about
the way that Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein exploited
kids from struggling families. So when defense counsel talks
to you about money, just think about that.
This trial was also about memory. When the witnesses
took that witness stand, they told you about searing memories
of childhood sexual abuse, traumatic memories that they've
