A routine press inquiry email from Ryan Hooper, a journalist with the Press Association in London, asking for basic logistical details about the upcoming Ghislaine Maxwell trial in October 2021.
This is a standard media query sent to what appears to be the Southern District of New York court system on October 20, 2021. The journalist was seeking confirmation of the November 29, 2021 trial start date, whether Maxwell would testify, and the expected trial duration. The email notes difficulty reaching anyone at the court by phone. This is a low-value document representing routine pre-trial press logistics rather than substantive case evidence.
