Ghislaine Maxwell's legal team filed a motion to sever Counts Five and Six (perjury charges) from Counts One through Four of the Superseding Indictment, arguing improper joinder under Rule 8(a) and potential prejudice under Rule 14(a). The perjury charges relate to Maxwell's statements in a 2016 civil deposition in a defamation case brought by Virginia Roberts Giuffre, which Maxwell's team argues are unrelated to the other charges and could prejudice her at trial.
