Harvard Law School professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz, who has faced accusations related to his former client Jeffrey Epstein, strongly stated on Newsmax on Friday that he would like the House Oversight Committee to call him in to testify publicly. He also demanded that the names of those accusing him and others be made public.

ā€œI’m delighted that there are public hearings,ā€ Dershowitz told ā€œBianca Across the Nation.ā€ ā€œI invite them to call me. I’m happy to testify.ā€

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, have agreed to testify before the committee. Hillary Clinton has called for the hearings to be conducted in public.

Alan Dershowitz noted that the former president is listed in connection with Jeffrey Epstein, but the names of Clinton’s accusers have been redacted.

ā€œClinton’s name is on the list,ā€ Dershowitz argued. ā€œIt says Bill Clinton, not a victim in Epstein’s case, claimed she was invited to an orgy with Clinton but did not attend.ā€

ā€œYou know, again, let’s have a public hearing, but let’s name these accusers,ā€ he added. ā€œThese accusers have no right to accuse and then hide behind anonymity.ā€

Dershowitz stated that in his own case, ā€œit says not a minor,ā€ so that factor should not be considered when deciding whether to release the identities of the accusers.

ā€œWhat right does an adult woman have to level an accusation of false, totally false accusation against me and hide behind redaction and anonymity?ā€

Alan Dershowitz was part of Jeffrey Epstein’s legal team in 2007, during which they negotiated a non-prosecution agreement in Florida. He later continued to represent Epstein as civil suits against him expanded.

Dershowitz was no longer serving as Epstein’s legal counsel in July 2019, when Epstein was facing charges of sex trafficking involving minors.

One month later, Epstein died in a New York correctional facility, and his death was ruled a suicide.

InĀ an interview with Newsmax, Dershowitz stated that it is ā€œMcCarthyismā€ and ā€œunconstitutionalā€ not to release the names of the accusers.

ā€œI’m delighted that we’re going to see public hearings,ā€ he said. ā€œLet them call me to the public hearings. I’ll tell them the truth about what happened.ā€

Dershowitz added that he won’t claim any privileges.

ā€œI won’t claim any inability to remember,ā€ he said. ā€œI remember everything, and I know a great deal about it. But they won’t call me because they’re not interested in the truth. They’re interested only in gossip.ā€

However, the ongoing controversy about Epstein ā€œis really not about Jeffrey Epstein anymore,ā€ said Dershowitz.

ā€œThis is about the worst form of McCarthyism that has afflicted America since the 1950s,ā€ he said.

Dershowitz continued that the Justice Department has released a list of ā€œprominent names,ā€ but ā€œevery single name of every accuser has been blacked out.ā€

ā€œSo, for example, let’s turn to me,ā€ Dershowitz said. ā€œIt says blank, blank, blank, blacked out. Stated she gave him a massage on Epstein’s plane. Parenthesis. Not a minor.ā€

ā€œI was never on Epstein’s plane with a young woman,ā€ he insisted.

ā€œSo let’s understand that this is an adult, a woman who was on Epstein’s plane, she says,ā€ said Dershowitz. ā€œI was never on Epstein’s plane with a young woman. I never got a massage. This is total defamation, a total lie.ā€

But he added that he can’t disprove the claim ā€œbecause they won’t give me her name.ā€

Dershowitz also responded to allegations suggesting that Epstein had connections with Israel’s Mossad.

ā€œIt’s an absurd theory. He was not a Mossad agent,ā€ said Dershowitz.

Dershowitz also insisted that Epstein ā€œwas not suicidal.ā€

ā€œThe lawyers told me that he was told he had a good chance of getting out on bail Monday or Tuesday, following the weekend when he allegedly killed himself, so there’s a good argument that he didn’t kill himself,ā€ said Dershowitz. ā€œBut then you have to ask yourself, who killed him?ā€
