This document is a page from a court transcript (Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE, likely the Ghislaine Maxwell trial) filed on August 10, 2022.

This document is page 11 of a court transcript from the trial of Ghislaine Maxwell (Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE), filed on August 10, 2022. Prosecutor Ms. Comey argues for the admission of a photograph (Exhibit 250) found in the 'lake room' of Epstein's home, which depicts Epstein with a young girl across his lap, appearing to pull down her underwear. The prosecution argues this is probative because it was prominently displayed in the house that Maxwell 'ran' as the 'lady of the house,' while Defense attorney Mr. Everdell objects, calling it prejudicial and an attempt to backdoor evidence.

This document is a page from a court transcript (Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE, likely United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell) filed on August 10, 2022. Defense attorney Mr. Everdell argues against the admissibility or weight of photographs taken during a 2005 walk-through of an Epstein residence, noting that witness Juan Alessi left in 2002 and witness 'Jane' only gave general descriptions of art, not specific identifications of the photos in question. The defense contends there is no testimony placing specific photos on the wall during the time relevant to the case.

DOJ-OGR-00018110.jpg

This document is a court transcript from August 10, 2022, detailing a legal argument about the admissibility of video evidence. An attorney, Ms. Comey, argues that a video showing a photograph in the context of a master bedroom shared by the defendant and Jeffrey Epstein should be admitted. The Court overrules an objection, agreeing that the video's context makes it different from the photograph in isolation and that it corroborates other testimony.

DOJ-OGR-00018108.jpg

This document is a court transcript from August 10, 2022, detailing an argument by Ms. Comey to the Court. Ms. Comey asserts that a 'disturbing photograph' displayed outside Jeffrey Epstein's master bedroom contradicts the defense's claim that the defendant was unaware of Epstein's attraction to underage girls. The defense's argument, as described by Comey, relies on a 'halo effect' from Epstein's association with prominent people, which she argues the photograph directly refutes by serving as evidence of Epstein's lifestyle.

DOJ-OGR-00018106.jpg

This document is a court transcript from August 10, 2022, in which an attorney, Mr. Everdell, argues for the exclusion of a portion of a video walk-through (Exhibit 296). The basis for the argument is that the video shows a photograph on a wall that the judge has already ruled inadmissible as a separate exhibit (Exhibit 288). The dialogue serves to clarify the distinction between multiple pieces of related evidence for the court record.

This document is a court transcript from August 10, 2022, detailing a legal argument over the admissibility of evidence. An attorney, Ms. Comey, contends that a 40-minute walk-through video (Gov. Exhibit 296) is relevant because it shows a previously excluded photograph (Gov. Exhibit 270) prominently displayed outside a master bedroom shared by the defendant and Mr. Epstein. The defense expresses concern that such evidence would be prejudicial to the jury.
