Although there is little solid proof, it’s commonly been believed that Jeffrey Epstein was blackmailing many high-ranking and influential figures. Theories bandied about online suggested that the New York financier and sex trafficker had dirt on almost every one and was using it for his own gain. However, Epstein’s former attorney has since come out and put those supposed conspiracy theories to rest.
Alan Dershowitz, 87, spoke about his former client on Pod Force One. The former lawyer was a part of the legal team responsible for Epstein’s non-prosecution deal which saw him evade jail after he was charged with unlawful sex with minors and sexual abuse back in 2006. During his time on the podcast Dershowitz explained that there were many claims spread about his former client which were untrue but had been treated as fact.
