Summary
This document is a court transcript from August 22, 2022, capturing a legal argument about evidence. A defense attorney argues that a helicopter purchase and testimony from Larry Visoski about holding assets for Mr. Epstein are not proof of their client's continued involvement in a conspiracy. In response, prosecutor Ms. Moe contends that this financial evidence was specifically offered to prove the defendant remained a 'close associate' of Epstein for many years, contradicting the defense's claim that she had 'moved on'.

1 your Honor. If the Court remembers the record evidence, there
2 was some evidence of money moving, but it was to buy a
3 helicopter that was not for her. We heard testimony from Larry
4 Visoski that he often kept assets of cars in his name for
5 Mr. Epstein. That doesn't make Larry Visoski a participant in
6 the criminal endeavors. I think it's a stretch for the
7 government to point to that as some sort of evidence of
8 continued involvement or continued profit after the end date of
9 the conspiracy. I just wanted to make that one point, your
10 Honor.
11 THE COURT: Anything on that, Ms. Moe?
12 MS. MOE: Your Honor, with respect to the financial
13 transaction, we offered that along with other evidence to
14 refute the claim that the defendant had moved on, which, as we
15 noted, is an expression that has no legal meaning. And so
16 contrary to the assertion that the defendant had moved on and
17 was no longer associated with Epstein, the trial evidence
18 established that she remained a close associate for many years,
19 and that is the purpose for which we offered that evidence.
20 THE COURT: Understood. Thank you.
21 I do want to address -- do you have other -- I want to
22 ask about 3(b)(1).
23 MR. EVERDELL: Yes, your Honor.
24 THE COURT: I think it's for the government. So as I
25 see the question here, the guidelines require me to find that
