This document is a page from the summation transcript of Ms. Menninger (defense) in the Ghislaine Maxwell trial (Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE). The defense attacks the credibility of a witness named Carolyn, arguing that she did not mention Maxwell for 17 years, even to her therapist Susan Pope, and only implicated Maxwell after filing lawsuits and receiving $2.8 million from a victims' compensation fund. The defense also disputes Carolyn's claim of seeing a photograph of Maxwell pregnant, stating there is no evidence Maxwell was ever pregnant.
