Alan Dershowitz appears in a very unflattering light in a DOJ report that describes the attorney talking about destroying alleged rape victims to protect his pedophile client Jeffrey Epstein. https://twitter.com/jkbjournalist/status/1327075600348155904
Dershowitz denied making the threat. But don't forget: he also used rape apologist and pro-Trump propagandist Mike Cernovich and Cernovich's unethical attorney, Marc Randazza, in an apparent effort to intimidate an alleged Epstein victim. https://www.thedailybeast.com/jeffrey-epstein-alan-dershowitz-and-pals-accused-of-sex-trafficking-ring
Jeffrey Epstein, Alan Dershowitz, and Pals Accused of Sex-Trafficking Ring

A lawyer for one of Epstein’s victims claims he was part of sex-trafficking ring with Dershowitz and others—but the Harvard attorney says sealed documents will prove his innocence.

This was no coincidence. Cernovich has worked with Chuck Johnson, a Holocaust-denying white nationalist and another Randazza client.

More important -- Johnson is an Alan Dershowitz mentee. https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2014/12/charles-chuck-johnson-gotnews-rolling-stone/

Dershowitz doesn't just have an alleged problem with young girls.

He seems to have a problem with democracy.

He was Trump's lawyer during impeachment hearings, during which he made a horrifying case from the U.S. Senate floor for autocracy in America. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/dershowitz-says-his-impeachment-argument-was-misinterpreted

As for Randazza, he is a living testament to shabby oversight in the legal profession. Randazza loves to hate on the media, but if a journalist were even 1/1000th as scurrilous as this so-called 1A attorney, he'd be drummed out of the business forever. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/alex-jones-lawyer-marc-randazza_n_5c1c283ae4b08aaf7a86b9e4
