probative value is outweighed by the prejudice. Again, this is
only seeking damages based on defendant's defamation.
I'm going to move on to point number 9. Ms. Giuffre
seeks to exclude any alleged criminal history from coming into
this case. And the Federal Rules of Evidence bar the
introduction of this evidence, full stop.
As the Court is aware, the only way criminal history
could come into evidence is through Rule 609, but that rule
itself bars this evidence because, one, there's no conviction,
and two, the alleged crime does not go to truthfulness.
Of the two parties, your Honor, Ms. Giuffre is the
only one who has not been convicted of a crime here, this is
merely an alleged prior bad act which is excluded under Rul
404.
And this alleged act, which Ms. Giuffre denies, does
not go to truthfulness, and that's an important point here. An
accusation of a crime with no conviction does not go to
truthfulness, especially a crime like this, which specifically
is defendant says she stole from a tip jar when she was a
teenager. Knowing that this type of evidence is excluded,
counsel for defendant has put forth an unsupported argument
that Ms. Giuffre left the United States because of allegations
that she stole from a tip jar. That is, of course, false. She
left the United States to get away from defendant's abuse.
