Summary

This document is a page from the closing summation by defense attorney Ms. Menninger in the Ghislaine Maxwell trial (Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE). The text challenges the credibility of a witness named 'Kate' using property records and then shifts focus to a witness named 'Carolyn.' It details Carolyn's 2007 interview with FBI agents Kuyrkendall and Richards, where she explicitly stated she was recruited by Virginia Roberts, who promised her money and brought her into a property where she saw a woman with an unknown accent.

1 totally different property. The property records show when she
2 owned the home, and they showed that Kate's story is wrong,
3 something the government didn't want you to see. I still don't
4 know what Kate's story brings to this prosecution.
5 Carolyn. Let's talk about Carolyn.
6 Carolyn talked to two FBI agents in 2007, Agents
7 Kuyrkendall and Richards. And you saw Special Agent Richards,

9 at Quantico on how to interview people; and when he talks to
10 people, he's taking down notes carefully; and he's writing down
11 what they say; and he's not limiting them in what they can talk
12 about; and that all these agents review their notes for

21 that happened.
22 And she told Special Agent Richards that she was

25 inside. She saw a lady inside who had an unknown accent. She
