This document is a page from the closing arguments (summation) by defense attorney Ms. Menninger in the Ghislaine Maxwell trial (Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE). Menninger argues against the government's claim that financial transfers to Maxwell were payments for facilitating abuse, stating that transfers like the $7.4 million for a helicopter via 'Air Ghislaine' were standard asset protection strategies used by the wealthy. She draws a parallel to Epstein placing cars in Palm Beach under pilot Larry Visoski's name to show that Epstein frequently put assets in employees' names.

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 defense argues that the government failed to provide corroborating witnesses (specifically relatives of accusers Jane, Kate, and Carolyn) or phone records to back up the victims' stories. Additionally, the defense highlights the testimony of pilot Larry Visoski, who stated he never saw women under the age of 20 on the planes, using this to cast doubt on the prosecution's case.
