Hmmmmโ€ฆCriminals only act up in liberal cities?

As you may have heard, the United States in 2020 hit a record 30% crime spike, the largest year-to-year ever recorded.

 

These particular cities have been a driving force.

SDNY COURTHOUSE, Nov 29 โ€“ Ghislaine Maxwell, charged with sex trafficking and other charges, faces a November 29, 2021 trial today, after the November 23 final-final pre trial conference, vlog here.

 

On October 29 and again on November 12 Maxell and the US Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York filed a flurry of motions in limine, heavily redacted; the Government argued that trial exhibits are not public and will be withheld. Inner City Press opposed and opposes the continued secrecy.

 

The entire morning of Day 1 was devoted to the final selection of the jury. Inner City Press live tweeted it here (vlog on way in here; podcast midway through here)

At 2 pm, the government's opening statement. Inner City Press live tweeted here:

 

Ghislaine Maxwell has been taking notes at far side of the defense table, next to the marble wall. Now Assistant US Attorney Lara Pomerantz is getting set in the glassed-in COVID podium, as the jurors come in. It's on.

 

Judge Nathan sings the praises of the overflow courtrooms; no mention of the denial of public call-in line such as exists, right this moment, in DDC, and these days by other SDNY judges. With #Omicron travel restrictions, should the denial of call-in line change?

 

AUSA Pomerantz: I want to tell you about Jane. She turned 14 years old that summer when a man and a woman walked by. The man said he was a donor who gave scholarships to students at this camp. The woman asked for her phone number. It began a nightmare.

 

AUSA Pomerantz: The man and woman were predators. Jane was not their only victim. There were other young girls. Who was that woman? It was the defendant, Ghislaine Maxwell. The defendant took these girls on shopping trips and won their trust. She talked sex

 

AUSA Pomerantz: There were times she was in the room when it happened. That is why we are here today. Between 1994 and 2004 the defendant sexually exploited young girls. She preyed on them and served them up to be sexually abused. She was trafficking kids for sex

 

AUSA Pomerantz: ..He owned a ranch in New Mexico, an apartment in Paris, a mansion in Manhattan, Palm Beach, a private island. Epstein has private planes and pilots. The defendant got to enjoy that luxury right along with Epstein.

 

AUSA Pomerantz: The defendant was the lady of the house. She imposed rules. Employees were to hear nothing, see nothing, say nothing. There was a culture of silence. That was by design. The defendant's design.

 

AUSA Pomerantz: They had a play book: get access, gain trust. They often targeted the daughters of single mothers, struggling to make ends meet. They made these girls feel seen. But that was a cover.

 

AUSA Pomerantz: To get the girls to touch Epstein, they used the cover of massage. The defendant massaged Epstein then told the girls to do it. Epstein brought girls into his massage room every single day. It was sexual abuse.

 

AUSA Pomerantz: Before I describe those so-called massages, let me say: these are the facts. Epstein touched the teenage girls with equipment... He sometimes penetrated... The defendant helped Epstein find those girls, for so-called massages.

 

AUSA Pomerantz: They lured their victims with a promise of a brighter future then destroyed their lives. The defendant was jet-setting in private planes. [Note: And holding press conferences at the UN, getting Antonio Guterres' official Amir Dossal on her board]

 

AUSA Pomerantz: So what happened to Jane? You will hear from her. Someone from Epstein's office invited her to Epstein's house. He told her mother he was offering a scholarship. Jane was 14 - a kid. Epstein was in his early 40s, the defendant in her early 30s

 

AUSA Pomerantz: Jane traveled to New York to Epstein's mansion, where he abused her. She was not the only one. You will learn about multiple girls during the course of this trial. You will learn about a 16 year old girl who traveled to the ranch in New Mexico

 

AUSA Pomerantz: The defendant told the girl she was going to give her a massage. But she touched her elsewhere. The girl was 16 years old. There's a 17 year old, spotted in a parking lot. The driver pulled over. [Maxwell puts on her glasses and jots down notes]

 

...much moar..
