Summary
A page from a court transcript (likely the sentencing hearing in US v. Maxwell, filed in the 2023 appeal) debating sentencing enhancements. The prosecution (Ms. Moe) argues that testimony from pilots proves Maxwell had supervisory authority over Sarah Kellen within the conspiracy. Defense attorney Everdell rebuts that Maxwell's presence while Kellen scheduled 'massage appointments' does not constitute supervision. The defense also mentions a 'five-point enhancement for repeated and dangerous sex offenders.'

1 With respect to the testimony of the pilots who
2 testified, whether they -- whether an employee was paid by
3 Maxwell or Epstein or technically reported to one, according to
4 their job descriptions, is not the question here. The fact
5 that pilots based on their observation thought at one point
6 that Kellen reported to Maxwell proves the point that she had
7 supervisory authority over Kellen and exercised it, whether in
8 the chain of command or on their formal employment paperwork,
9 she was just an employee for one or the other, it makes no
10 difference. There was an overlap here. They had different
11 roles in the conspiracy, and the defendant had a supervisory
12 roll over Kellen.
13 MR. EVERDELL: Your Honor, just to that point. Being
14 present does not mean that you're a supervisor. That's way too
15 far a stretch. So the fact that there was testimony she was
16 present still in the house while Kellen was making the calls
17 and scheduling the massage appointments means nothing in terms
18 of supervisory authority.
19 THE COURT: Thank you. Other enhancements before the
20 government's objection is to be addressed.
21 MS. MOE: No, your Honor. Thank you.
22 MR. EVERDELL: Your Honor, I assume you don't want to
23 hear or have any questions about the five-point enhancement for
24 repeated and dangerous sex offenders.
