that makes several references to Dershowitz

Here's a timeline

He had a setback in the resulting defamation case and was found to be flying with Epstein a number of times

My sense was that it smelled bad for Dershowitz. Epstein was basically ill - nailing three young girls a day it is alleged - an insatiable sexual appetite. Dershowitz claims to have been around him a number of times and yet never saw a young girl (but there was one on one of the flights they took together).
