Case 18-2868, Document 278, 08/09/2019, 2628230, Page89 of 648 press to stop and think before publishing, to cease and desist, and that if they continued then they faced higher damages for ignoring my clear warning. 19. Consistent with those two purposes, Mr. Gow’s emails prefaced the statement with the following language: “Please find attached a quotable statement on behalf of Ms Maxwell” (italics supplied). The statement was intended to be a single, one-time-only, comprehensive response—quoted in full, if it was to be used—to plaintiff's December 30, 2014, allegations that would give the media Ms. Maxwell’s response.

Having established the dramatic difference between Plaintiff's two sets of allegations, which suggested she was fabricating more and more-salacious allegations as she had more time to manufacture them, I added the third paragraph: “[Ms. Giuffre’s] claims are obvious lies and should be treated as such and not publicised as news, as they are defamatory.” (Emphasis supplied.) I believed then, and believe now, that it was and remains a fair inference and conclusion that her claims
