Notice of Electronic Filing

The following transaction was entered on 4/29/2022 at 4:54 PM EDT and filed on 4/29/2022
Case Name: USA v. Maxwell
Case Number: 1:20-cr-00330-AJN
Filer:
Document Number: 657
Docket Text:
OPINION & ORDER as to Ghislaine Maxwell....[*** See this Opinion & Order ***]... V. Conclusion.
For the foregoing reasons, the Court denies the Defendant's Rule 29 motion because the jury's
guilty verdicts were supported by the witness testimony and documentary evidence presented
at trial. The Court denies the Defendant's motion based on constructive amendment or
EFTA00038962

variance because the jury instructions, the Government's evidence at trial, and summation all
captured the core of criminality charged in the Indictment, and the Defendant was not
prejudiced by any alleged variance. Further, because the Government neither intentionally
delayed its prosecution nor was the Defendant prejudiced by any delay, the Court also denies
the Defendant's motion based on pre-indictment delay. Finally, the Court grants the
Defendant's motion as to multiplicity. The Government concedes that Count One is
multiplicitous with Count Three, and the Court further concludes that Count Five is
multiplicitous with Count Three. Count Five, like Counts One and Three, charged the
Defendant's participation in the same decade-long unlawful agreement with the Defendant's
continuous coconspirator, Jeffrey Epstein, to groom and sexually abuse underage girls.
Accordingly, the Court will enter judgment of conviction on Counts Three, Four, and Six. The
Defendant's sentencing date remains scheduled for June 28, 2022. The Court previously set a
schedule for sentencing submissions that remains in effect. Dkt. No. 656. This resolves Dkt.
No. 599. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Alison J. Nathan on 4/29/2022)(bw)
