An internal legal email from Ghislaine Maxwell's defense team coordinating the filing of redacted motions in limine just weeks before her November 2021 sex trafficking trial.
This October 29, 2021 email documents the coordination between Maxwell's defense attorneys (Laura Menninger, Jeffrey Pagliuca) and prosecutors (Bobbi Sternheim, Christian Everdell) regarding which court filings should be sealed versus redacted before public filing. The email lists 13 defense motions and attachments, including motions to exclude evidence under Rule 404(b), Daubert challenges to expert testimony, and motions to suppress identification evidence. The defense team identifies specific exhibits containing sensitive materials—grand jury testimony, Epstein's contact book, depositions, and a photobook—that they argue should remain sealed rather than publicly filed.
