Notable Quotes 2
"Although Ms. Maxwell is charged with conspiring to cause individuals to travel in interstate or foreign commerce to engage in unlawful sexual activity, the indictment contains no allegation that Accuser-3 ever traveled."
"Therefore, the Court should strike all allegations regarding Accuser-3 from the indictment, as they are nothing more than a transparent attempt by the government to introduce Accuser-3's testimony as evidence of a conspiracy, when it is at most 'other acts' evidence subject to the balancing test required by Fed. R. Evid. 404(b)."
Red Flags 3
- Allegations of sexual abuse involving minors.
- Attempts to introduce evidence that may be unduly prejudicial.
