Norris, 281 F.3d 357, 369 (2d Cir. 2002)).\nLacking any authority for her argument, the defendant cites Peugh and offers her own sweeping conclusion that, essentially, the Sixth Amendment requires that all Ex Post Facto issues be resolved by juries. But as the Supreme Court explained in Peugh, \"the Sixth Amendment and Ex Post Facto Clause inquiries are analytically distinct\" and \"[n]othing that we say today 'undo[es]' the holdings of Booker, Rita, Gall, Kimbrough, or our other recent sentencing cases.\" Peugh, 569 U.S. at 549-50. It is thus unsurprising that the defendant has not located a single case, anywhere in the nation, that has concluded, in the nine years since Peugh was decided, that the determination of which Guidelines Manual to apply implicates the Sixth Amendment.

There can be no question that the evidence establishes that the conspiracy ran past November 1, 2004, consistent with the charging language in the Indictment.\nAt trial, Carolyn testified that she continued to perform sexualized massages for Epstein when she was 18, which was in 2005. Carolyn's birth certificate was admitted at trial as GX 11. Carolyn turned 18 in 2005, which is after November 1, 2004, the day that the 2004 Manual went into effect.\nIn particular, Carolyn gave the following testimony:\n19\nDOJ-OGR-00010556",
