This legal document, part of a court filing, argues that a defendant's actions satisfy the requirements for a 'covered sex crime' under the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines. The prosecution asserts that the defendant engaged in a pattern of prohibited sexual conduct, including transporting victims (Jane) and non-consensual touching (Jane and Carolyn), justifying a sentencing enhancement. The document refutes the defendant's claim that the guideline is inapplicable, citing case law and the original congressional intent to ensure lengthy incarceration for such offenders.
This document is a page from a legal filing (Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE, likely the Ghislaine Maxwell trial) dated October 29, 2021. The text argues for the admissibility of expert testimony regarding 'grooming' and the psychological relationship between sexual abuse victims and perpetrators, citing numerous appellate court precedents (9th, 8th, 10th, 5th, and 2nd Circuits) to support the validity/relevance of such testimony. The filing notes that the defendant is attempting to rely on a single contrary case from the District of Maine.
