This document is page 59 of a court transcript (filed 08/10/22) from the trial of Ghislaine Maxwell. Defense attorney Ms. Sternheim argues that the government is applying 'hindsight bias' to lawful conduct like shopping or movies, relabeling it as 'grooming.' She further argues that prosecution witnesses are financially motivated, claiming they receive money from the Epstein Victim Compensation Fund and enhance their payouts by cooperating with the government.
