Summary

This document is a court transcript from August 10, 2022, where attorneys debate the legal terminology in an indictment. Mr. Everdell argues against including 'and foreign' in the commerce charge, suggesting a lack of evidence. In response, Mr. Rohrbach, for the government, cites flight records showing the defendant traveled overseas with Jeffrey Epstein and a 17-year-old Virginia Roberts, asserting this evidence supports the 'foreign commerce' element.

MR. EVERDELL: I can pull this up a little bit?
2
THE COURT: -- if I'm going to hear from you a lot.
3
But yes, pull up the mic and -- yes. First page, Mr. Everdell.
4
MR. EVERDELL: Defense's first page is page 15.
5
THE COURT: Okay. Line?
6
MR. EVERDELL: Well, we'll start with line 8 and 9.
7
THE COURT: Okay.
8
MR. EVERDELL: So this was the summary of the
9
indictment charge, your Honor.
10
THE COURT: Yes.
11
MR. EVERDELL: And on 8 and 9, there's a reference to
12
travel to both interstate and foreign commerce. I think
13
throughout the charge there's a bit of an inconsistency.
14
Sometimes we're talking about just interstate, sometimes we're
15
talking about interstate and foreign. I actually don't think
16
that there's any evidence, especially with respect to Count One
17
or the Mann Act charges or any of them, we're talking about
18
"and foreign commerce." I think it's interstate commerce, so I
19
don't think the "and foreign" is necessary.
20
THE COURT: I think we have -- Mr. Rohrbach?
21
MR. ROHRBACH: Your Honor, this actually relates to
22
the government's later request, but the government's view is
23
that there are flight records that show Virginia Roberts
24
traveling with the defendant and Jeffrey Epstein overseas while
25
she is 17, I believe, and so that would be sufficient, at least
