This document is a page from the defense summation by Ms. Menninger in the Ghislaine Maxwell trial (Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE). The attorney argues that a witness named Carolyn did not mention Maxwell in her original 2007 statements to the FBI or in her 2008 civil lawsuits. The text details Carolyn's interactions with Epstein, Roberts, and Sarah Kellen, specifically noting that Roberts instructed the massage and engaged in sex acts with Epstein, while Kellen took photos and arranged logistics.
