Indicators

reference to approximately 40 alleged victimsspecific inquiry whether any victims remain under 18 at time of agreementbaseline assumption by defense counsel that guardian ad litem protections may not be neededscale of alleged victim population (40) suggests systemic exploitation pattern

Reasoning

Defense counsel's question implicitly acknowledges the existence of approximately 40 alleged victims and seeks to establish whether minors remain under legal protection. The scale and the timing question (are any 'still' under 18) suggest awareness of a multi-victim exploitation operation spanning years. Confidence is high due to the clear numerical reference and the defensive posture around minor protections.
