Ghislaine Maxwell Defense Puts Memory Itself on Trial With First Expert Witness

Loftus’s turn on the witness stand follows two weeks anchored by the testimony of four women who say they were abused by Maxwell and Epstein. The witnesses recalled meeting the pair in their teens and three of the four testified to being asked to massage Epstein, encounters that turned sexual. Some recounted Maxwell coaching them on how to rub Epstein’s feet and body. One witness, who went by the pseudonym Jane, said Maxwell coached her to twist his nipples.

Our brains don’t work like video recordings, Loftus explained. The process of creating memories is more complex than that. She spoke about her research, which shows memories can be manipulated, corrupted, impaired, altered, or even constructed whole-cloth by suggested misinformation. In laboratories, she’s demonstrated that people who watched a simulation of a car accident can be convinced a stop sign was a yield sign if that idea is suggested to them after the fact.

She said memories of traumatic events – like seeing your parents involved in a violent fight or having a near-death drowning experience and needing to be rescued by a lifeguard – that never happened have also been implanted in laboratory settings.

'Your honor, those memories were lost... like tears... in rain.'

I don’t remember disliking a couple more than Jeffrey and Ghislaine, so they might have a point. Ha.

Why not try the 'twinkie' defense while we are at it? After all how could we possibly expect young women to remember what happened to them regarding sexual assault.

This makes sense but still bullshit

Ahh..using the trump 'don't believe your eyes, believe me' strategy eh? Gaslighting 101

Huh?
