Summary
This document is a page from the defense summation by Ms. Menninger in the trial of Ghislaine Maxwell (Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE). The defense argues that the government failed to provide corroborating witnesses (specifically relatives of accusers Jane, Kate, and Carolyn) or phone records to back up the victims' stories. Additionally, the defense highlights the testimony of pilot Larry Visoski, who stated he never saw women under the age of 20 on the planes, using this to cast doubt on the prosecution's case.
