Overview

  • A July 6 DOJFBI memo confirmed there is no formal Epstein client list, only an affidavit with names redacted under seal
  • In a July 15 Wall Street Journal op-ed and interviews, Dershowitz said he knows the identities on the sealed FBI document and none are current officeholders
  • He attributed the suppression of names to sealing orders by two Manhattan judges and cleared the Justice Department and President Trump of any withholding
  • Dershowitz dismissed allegations of secret sex tapes at Epstein’s Palm Beach estate as mere security-camera footage and denied any Mossad or intelligence-agency ties
  • He called on media outlets and the public to petition courts to remove the redactions and make the names public
