This document is a page from a court transcript (Case 22-1426, likely US v. Maxwell appeal records) containing a judge's ruling during sentencing. The judge overrules the defendant's objection and sustains the government's objection regarding the PSR Guideline calculation, explicitly finding that Virginia Roberts and Melissa were minor victims trafficked and abused by the defendant and Epstein. Consequently, the judge rules that these victims must be included in the sentencing calculation under Section 3D1.4, despite not being named in the indictment.
