1 to New Mexico, where/if there was an intent for Jane to engage
2 in sexual activity. So there is still an open question in
3 their minds about whether the flight to New Mexico, that
4 travel, was for the purpose of engaging in illegal sexual
5 activity.
6 But they are now considering whether the flight out of
7 New Mexico, if Ms. Maxwell had any -- did anything to do with
8 that flight, with arranging that flight, could we convict her
9 on that count alone. Because there is no, I think, evidence
10 that she arranged the flight going to New Mexico; instead, they
11 are considering now whether there's any evidence that she may
12 have arranged the flight out of New Mexico. And is that enough
13 to provide a conviction on Count Two? And I think the answer
14 to that is pretty clearly no -- I'm sorry, Count Four I should
15 have said, not Count Two. Because there's no evidence of that.

17 instructions themselves, that would not be a significant or
18 motivating purpose for that travel across state lines. That
19 would simply be for her to return home. That's not travel for
20 the purpose of engaging in illegal sexual activity.
21 MS. MOE: Your Honor, I think this colloquy
22 illustrates how confusing the note is. We are now guessing at
23 what hypothetical facts the jury is talking about; and then
24 guessing hypothetically what their legal question is on top of
25 that. And I think we're compounding guesswork, what this

3 their minds about whether the flight to New Mexico, that
4 travel, was for the purpose of engaging in illegal sexual
5 activity.
