Here is an excerpt from the article below:

"A victim of Epstein, who purportedly committed suicide while awaiting trial over allegations of sexual abuse of minors, settled a lawsuit against Dershowitz last November over claims the Harvard professor sexually assaulted her. In a statement, Virginia Giuffre said she “may have made a mistake in identifying Mr. Dershowitz” as one of her abusers.

Shortly after the suit was settled, though, Giuffre said that Dershowitz was not “exonerated,” regardless of his claims otherwise.

“Whether or not Mr. Dershowitz’s admissions undermine his previous denials of the charges made against him is for others to say,” she asserted. “The settlement agreement limits what I can say and I will abide by it unless and until I am released from it. However, those admissions are not consistent with ‘exoneration.’”

Giuffre added: “Stopping the false charges against me, and securing Mr. Dershowitz’s public acknowledgment of my good faith was important to me and my family. However, I did not, and would never, ‘exonerate’ Mr. Dershowitz in return.”

Additionally, another Epstein victim insisted in a 2017 deposition that the multimillionaire sex trafficker forced her to take part in a threesome with Dershowitz—an allegation that the celebrated attorney has adamantly denied."

It looks to me like Alan Dershowitz uses defamation lawsuits to drain money from people so they want to make the money drain go away. He created a big headache for Giuffre so she would just want the whole mess go away, but she clearly isn't saying her accusation against him is not true.

Is Alan Dershowitz abusing the legal system that he knows so well with money draining defamation lawsuits to shut up his accusers? It would not be the first time lawsuits were used as a weapon by those that are wealthier than the target of the lawsuit.

In 1895 Tesla and Westinghouse won the contract to build the AC generating plant at Niagara Falls. Having failed in his bid to establish DC as the dominant form of electricity and having failed in his effort to take over Westinghouse, JP Morgan threatened to sue Westinghouse over his ownership of Tesla‘s patents.

Westinghouse lacked the funds to engage in a legal battle with Morgan and thus signed over the rights to Tesla’s patents to Morgan. It was then that General Electric then became the dominant provider of electricity throughout the nation.

Edwin Howard Armstrong's life was ruined by legal litigation with RCA. In 1940, RCA, seeing that it was losing the technological race, tried to license Armstrong's patents, but he refused the offer. The company then developed its own FM system. Armstrong accused RCA of patent infringement and began litigation against the company, hoping to win damages for lost royalties.

Struggling with personal and financial problems, Armstrong committed suicide in 1954 by jumping to his death from his New York City apartment. He was buried in Merrimac, Massachusetts.

Wealthy people can abuse the law simply because another person or company cannot afford the legal fees.

Defending criminals is what lawyers do.
They are called defense attorneys.

Criminals need lawyers too, but you want to decide who is a criminal before a trial.
Newsflash: That is what the trial is for, to determine if they are criminals.

BTW, Cohen is a convicted criminal. He admitted he was guilty of 5 counts of Tax fraud, Making false statements to a financial institution, Unlawful corporate contributions and Excessive campaign contributions.

But that's exactly my point. Dershowitz doesn't. His clients have all done what they were accused of.

Maybe it's an ego thing, a thumb in the eyes of District Attorneys. You thought you had a good case. Hahahaha! Still, he's the only winner. He gets paid either way. Scumbag.

OJ Simpson was acquitted.
