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 attorney argues against the reliability of accuser memories, citing expert Dr. Loftus and discrediting Dr. Rocchio, while asserting that 'money is a powerful manipulator.' The text transitions to discussing the six counts against Maxwell, specifically defining conspiracy as an agreement to violate the law.

LCKVMAX6 Summation - Ms. Menninger
1 Dubin to try to suggest that maybe her memory wasn't so good
2 because of a medical condition. But she was quite firm in the
3 one thing, she absolutely did not take part in sexual abuse
4 with Jane.
5 Science is science. And Dr. Loftus, Professor Loftus,
6 would say the same thing, no matter who called her to the
7 stand. You can look at her CV. You can't compare it to Dr.
8 Rocchio's, because Dr. Rocchio's is not in evidence. But Dr.
9 Rocchio told you she hasn't done any research. And you don't
10 even need an expert to tell you some basic facts. Memory fades
11 over time, manipulation can alter memories, and money is a
12 powerful manipulator.
13 Any claim to truth must be accompanied by the proof.
14 And here, these women are claiming to be telling you true
15 stories and true memories; but in many cases, if not most, they
16 are contradicted by the actual documents we have from the time
17 period.
18 I'm going to talk to you a little bit about the law,
19 as the government did.
20 As you heard, Ghislaine Maxwell is charged with six
21 counts, and you're going to have the opportunity to acquit her
22 of all of those. I'm going to walk you through this.
23 Counts One, Three, and Five are the ones that accuse
24 her of participating in a conspiracy. A conspiracy is an
25 agreement between two or more people to violate the law. It's
2 because of a medical condition. But she was quite firm in the
3 one thing, she absolutely did not take part in sexual abuse
4 with Jane.
