This document is page 81 of a court transcript from the sentencing hearing of Ghislaine Maxwell, filed on August 22, 2022. Defense attorney Ms. Sternheim argues that the government's requested sentence is disproportionate and notes that the Probation Department recommended a downward variance to 20 years. Sternheim explicitly argues that Jeffrey Epstein was 'far more culpable' than Maxwell, yet would have faced the same sentencing guidelines.

This document is a page from the sentencing transcript of Ghislaine Maxwell (Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE), filed on August 22, 2022. The defense attorney argues for a lighter sentence based on 3553(a) factors, citing Maxwell's traumatic childhood marked by her brother's coma and death, and her 'narcissistic, brutish' father. The defense also attempts to mitigate her culpability by characterizing Jeffrey Epstein as 'controlling, demanding, [and] manipulative,' claiming he cast a deceptive shadow over her adulthood.
