This document is page 154 of a court transcript from the closing summation by defense attorney Ms. Menninger in the Ghislaine Maxwell trial (Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE). Menninger attacks the credibility of witnesses Carolyn and Jane, arguing that financial motivation and the passage of time have flawed their memories. She specifically highlights that witnesses Eva and Michelle contradicted Jane's testimony regarding participation in sexual orgies, and notes that Epstein's death prevents him from confronting these accusers.

This document is page 70 of a court transcript from the summation in Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE (United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell). Prosecutor Ms. Moe argues against the testimony of expert witness Loftus regarding false memories, citing a study where researchers failed to implant false memories of a 'rectal enema.' Moe argues that, like the enema, sexual abuse is a traumatic event that cannot be suggested or falsely implanted, and notes that Loftus admitted traumatic memories are stronger than others.
