Summary
This document is a court transcript from August 10, 2022, featuring defense attorney Mr. Everdell moving for a judgment of acquittal under Rule 29(a) on behalf of Ms. Maxwell. Everdell argues that the government's evidence is insufficient to prove the charges in the S2 indictment, specifically focusing on Counts One and Two (enticement and conspiracy). He contends that the prosecution has failed to prove that Maxwell persuaded the witness 'Jane' to travel to New York for illegal sex acts.
