Alan Dershowitz, Jeffrey Epstein’s former lawyer, claims two courts in New York are withholding information on the notorious
During an interview on NewsNation with Chris Cuomo, the former lawyer said that none of the individuals in the document are now holding public office.
Dershowitz maintained that he is unable to divulge further material due to judicial orders but that Attorney General Pam Bondi and President Trump are “not responsible” for the missing information
Pam Bondi and President Trump are “not responsible” for the missing information.
“No, there’s no client list and never has been a client list. A client list suggests that Jeffrey Epstein made a list of people to whom he trafficked women. What there is, is a redacted FBI affidavit from accusers.
There are several of them from accusers that accuse Jeffrey — that accuse various people of having improper sex, and that has been redacted, the names of the people accuse have been blacked out,” Dershowitz began.

Y is, and Mr. Z. I can tell you right now: None of them are public figures who are currently in office.
And the redactions could be undone if you go to court,” Dershowitz added.
But Pam Bondi and the Justice Department and Donald Trump are not responsible for that. I don’t know of any information that they could disclose that they haven’t disclosed,” he continued.
“Now maybe there is some, but I’m simply not aware of it. And so I think it’s important to place the blame where the blame deserves to be placed. The vast majority of people who are in the files — and I I know them all, I’ve seen all the names — the vast, vast majority of them have already been disclosed.
So that’s that list,” he concluded

That investigation ultimately ended with Epstein pleading guilty to state charges and serving 13 months in jail, after federal prosecutors agreed not to pursue federal sex trafficking charges.
