Jeffrey Epstein, a non-party to the case against Ghislaine Maxwell, filed a motion to quash a subpoena requiring him to testify at trial. Epstein had previously asserted his Fifth Amendment privilege during a deposition and intends to do the same if called to testify. The motion argues that his personal appearance would not add value to the case and would impose an undue burden, given his residence in the Virgin Islands and the potential media attention. The motion also discusses the legal standards for drawing adverse inferences from a witness's invocation of the Fifth Amendment.
