      "summary": "Reuters reported that Ghislaine Maxwell filed a new habeas corpus petition arguing that newly released Epstein materials undermine her conviction. U.S. prosecutors rejected the claims as untimely or legally baseless. This is a live court-process signal, not proof that the underlying claims are correct.",
      "why": "Keeps the Epstein lane focused on docket movement, legal arguments, prosecutorial responses, and evidence boundaries rather than viral name-list claims.",

      "summary": "The Wall Street Journal reported on testimony from Jeffrey Epstein's longtime executive assistant Lesley Groff before the House Oversight Committee. The testimony concerned scheduling, logistics, massage appointments, and claimed lack of knowledge. The association boundary remains essential: testimony and document mentions are not automatic findings of criminal conduct.",
      "why": "The useful signal is operational structure: staff, scheduling, logistics, records, committee questioning, and where testimony conflicts with survivor or FBI-record claims.",
