This document is a page from a court transcript dated August 10, 2022, in which an attorney argues that the evidence against an individual named Ghislaine is insufficient to prove criminal enticement. The attorney contends that her role in arranging travel was merely a 'ministerial function,' akin to a travel agent, and did not involve the persuasion or inducement required by the statute. To support this claim, the attorney cites the 2008 Second Circuit case, United States v. Joseph, as a legal precedent.
