Sounds good. How about this?¶
“Preserving the innocence of children is one of the most important, if not the most important, responsibilities we carry as adults. Like Epstein, Ms. Maxwell chose to blatantly disregard the law and her responsibility as an adult, using whatever means she had at her disposal to lure vulnerable youth into behavior they should never have been exposed to, creating the potential for lasting harm. We know the quest for justice has been met with great disappointment for the victims, and that reliving these events is traumatic. The example set by the women involved has been a powerful one. They persevered against the rich and connected, and they did so without a badge, a gun, or a subpoena – and they stood together. I have no doubt the bravery exhibited by the women involved here has empowered others to speak up about the crimes of which they’ve been subjected.”¶

She took a couple lines from different parts, but my full comments actually say this now (in different areas).¶

Not sure we should end a sentence with “to”. I attached the full remarks.¶

said this was the quote she proposed for you. If you’re good to go, I’ll send to SDNY.¶
“Preserving the innocence of children is one of the most important, if not the most important, responsibilities we carry as adults. Jeffery Epstein, and Ms. Maxwell chose to blatantly disregard this responsibility. As alleged in the indictment, Ms. Maxwell used whatever means at her disposal to lure children into a life to which they should never be exposed. We know the quest for justice has been met with great disappointment for the victims, and that reliving these events is traumatic. The example set by the women involved has been a powerful one. They persevered against the rich and connected, and they did so without a badge, a gun or a subpoena – and they stood together. I have no doubt the bravery exhibited by the women involved here has empowered others to speak up about crimes they have been subjected to.”¶
