Summary
This document is a transcript page from the trial of Ghislaine Maxwell featuring the direct examination of witness Annie Farmer. Farmer testifies about her reluctance to go to New Mexico to see Jeffrey Epstein due to a prior incident in a New York movie theater, stating she only felt comfortable going because her mother told her Maxwell (whom she viewed as Epstein's romantic partner) would be present. The defense attorney, Ms. Menninger, raises a hearsay objection regarding the mother's statement, which the judge overrules with a limiting instruction.
