Alan Dershowitz Reaches Erev Shabbos 'Truce' With Jewish PR Flack Ronn Torossian
“I responded in anger to what I believed were inappropriate comments by Ronn Torossian and I withdraw any comments that were hurtful.”
Above: Alan Dershowitz
Alan Dershowitz and the 5WPR CEO Ronn Torossian issued a joint kiss-and-make-up statement today, apparently ending their fight over whether or not Dershowitz should be defended from his critics in the Jeffrey Epstein underage sex affair simply because Dershowitz is a major defender of Israel. (Torossian says it isn't an Israel issue at all. Dershowitz attacked him for that and tried top smear him.)
Here's the key part as posted by the New York Observer:
Alan Dershowitz: “I responded in anger to what I believed were inappropriate comments by Ronn Torossian and I withdraw any comments that were hurtful.”
Ronn Torossian: “Alan Dershowitz has worked his entire life for Jewish interests and his deep love for Jews and Israel is clear.”
And then together, “While we have political differences, we agree that both of us have legitimate points of view and demonization is inappropriate,” said Alan Dershowitz and Ronn Torossian.
Who brokered this truce?
The Observer says it was Rabbi Avi Weiss, who is Torossian's rabbi and who is also close to Dershowitz.
None of this may matter, though. It seems many of Dershowitz's claims about his lack of participation in the Epstein affair may not be completely true, and Dershowitz may soon have much more to worry about than Torossian. All those years of Dershowitz smears of his clients' victims and of prosecutors – especially federal prosecutors – could soon come back to bite him. And I can think of dozens of prosecutors who would love to see that happen.

Nothing would surprise me about this immoral man. He's been spending his life promoting Israel, a country that would abuse and violate the civil rights of his own patrilineal grandchildren. If someone puts a country above their own grandchildren they're capable of anything.

1) Gawker: Here Is Pedophile Billionaire Jeffrey Epstein’s Little Black Book

Donald Trump, Courtney Love, former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak, and uber-lawyer Alan Dershowitz may have been identified by a butler as potential “material witnesses” to pedophile billionaire Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes against young girls, according to a copy of Epstein’s little black book obtained by Gawker.

2) Gawker: Flight Logs Put Clinton, Dershowitz on Pedophile Billionaire’s Sex Jet

But according to the flight logs, Dershowitz was close enough to Epstein to have accompanied him on a flight from Palm Beach to New Jersey’s Teterboro Airport as early as December 1997. On that flight, the pair was accompanied by a number of people, including one unidentified “female,” a “Hazel,” a “Claire,” and Maxwell.
The logs also show Dershowitz on a flight with Epstein from Bedford, Mass., to Teterboro in October 1998, and a flight from Teterboro to Martha’s Vineyard in 1999. And a 2005 trip from Massachusetts to Montreal shows him traveling with Epstein, “Tatianna,” and others.
One things the logs don’t show: Dershowitz’s wife traveling with him.
In an interview with Gawker, Dershowitz repeated his emphatic denials of ever having sexual contact with any underaged girls, and acknowledged that he first met Epstein way back in 1997. “It was just before [ Epstein confidant] Les Wexner’s 60th birthday,” Dershowitz said. “My first substantive contact with him was to fly with him to Les Wexner’s house to attend dinner with Shimon Peres and John Glenn.”
As for who else was on those flights, Dershowitz couldn’t recall. Hazel? “I don’t know.” Claire? “I have no idea.” Tatianna? “I think that was a woman in her 20s who was Epstein’s girlfriend, but I never flew with her.” The unidentified female? “That could have been my mother.”
As for why his ever-present wife didn’t appear in the flight logs by his side, Dershowitz said that she did accompany him on several Epstein-sponsored trips that don’t show up in the logs obtained by Gawker. (It is also possible that the logs, which pilots generally keep primarily to record hours of flight time, could also be incomplete or inaccurate as to the passengers.) “She travels with me all over. On occasion, she’s working or travels separately. I travel with her almost all the time, not all the time.”
One thing is for sure, though: “I have a very clear, unequivocal recollection that I was never on a plane with any young women, period.”
In the same American Lawyer interview, Dershowitz claimed that his relationship with Epstein was “entirely professional,” and that allegations that the two were “chummy” were “a total bum rap.”

florida state attorney, Alexander Acosta, who oversaw the epstein case and wrote a letter about it afterwards has the most horrendous things to say about the defense team (including dersh) and their underhanded antics during the case.
note: acosta had prosecuted some very high profile and dangerous individuals. yet, he said this about the lawyers intimidation strategy in this case: "Epstein’s defense team launched “a yearlong assault on the prosecution and the prosecutors.
I use the word assault intentionally, as the defense in this case was more aggressive than any which I, or the prosecutors in my office, had previously encountered”
it gets a lot worse.

Jewish crooks love to hide behind the Torah, Israel, and the Holocaust.

Don't I know it. Worked for one bastard who liked to point out to those who did not know that he was a holocaust survivor. I kept my tongue and kept my tongue, until one evening in the office, where my stress level was through the roof, and I had a drink or two in me (some evening hours, there would be a bottle thrown into the mix). I asked him where his numbers were and how could someone born in 1948 be a holocaust survivor?
The resulting rage, put me into a wall and on the unemployment line.

The older I get, very little surprises me about people and their behavior.
We do know that Dershowitz was well acquainted with Epstein.
Dershowitz claims that he did not have inappropriate contact with minor girls.
He might be telling the truth. The accusation could be totally false.
Also, he could be telling the truth as he knows it. Dershowitz could have been drugged, and therefore has no recollection of the encounter.

give me a break. This sex slave matter has nothing to do with being a jew, against jews or anything else. Its Alan using the fact he is a jew to deflect the issues. Hey thats what he does, expert at it, thats the way he fights his cases. Anti jewish rubbish. What do you call Epstein- he's a jew. Prince Andew, last I heard he wasn't a jew. The good part here is Alan hates the negitive media attention, yet has no problem putting out negitive media & using negitive media to his advantage. I say full disclosure of the entire matter in the US courts should prove what the truth is. Until then- all I am reading is nasty men trying to hide

So Dershowitz knew about the underage girls but he is claiming he had no idea saw nothing. I find that hard to believe he is not apathetic ever.
Posted by: adams | January 31, 2015 at 11:54 PM
Dershowitz is now saying he didn't "knowingly" have sex with a sex slave. Translation from lawyer-speak: He did it and dares you to prove that he knew it.
