This document is page 174 of a court transcript from the trial of Ghislaine Maxwell (Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE), filed on August 10, 2022. Prosecutor Ms. Comey is delivering a rebuttal argument, refuting the defense's theory that witnesses (Kate, Carolyn, Annie, Jane) had false memories implanted by the media, the FBI, or greedy lawyers seeking money from the Epstein Victim Compensation Fund. Comey argues there is no evidence the witnesses consumed each other's media interviews or that their lawyers conspired to fabricate stories, noting specifically that Annie's lawyer worked pro bono.

This document is a page from the rebuttal argument by prosecutor Ms. Comey during the trial of Ghislaine Maxwell (implied by case number). Comey argues that the testimony of four key witnesses (Jane, Kate, Carolyn, and Annie) is sufficient for a guilty verdict and refutes defense attorney Ms. Menninger's claims regarding age limits at the Epstein Victim Compensation Fund. Comey also details witness testimony corroborating that the victim 'Annie' was 16, not 17, during a trip to Santa Fe.

This document is a page from a court transcript (Rebuttal by Ms. Comey) filed on August 10, 2022, in the case against Ghislaine Maxwell. The prosecutor argues against the defense's conspiracy theory by highlighting the consistency of eight witnesses (including Juan Alessi and accusers like Annie and Carolyn) and pointing out the chronological impossibility of a conspiracy formed in 2019, given that incriminating statements were made to the FBI and in depositions in 2006 and 2009. The prosecutor references corroborating evidence such as flight records, FedEx records, and message pads.
