Cocktails & Popcorn: When Alan "I Kept My Underwear On" Dershowitz Hits Front Page Of The Root

When The Root publishes, you know the heavens are about to fall.

There is an entire army of journalists who have been lying in wait, surrounding the kingdom, ready to bring down the heavens, upon the call of charge from the Old School Civil Rights Legal Dogs, upon the arrival to Detroit.

Dershowitz was mean to my Sweetie.
... Governmental eavesdropping today is simply out of control, and it is entirely possible that we have seen only the tip of the iceberg....The Nixon clique may just have been the worst offenders, though we can never know this with certainty unless we learn more about what went on during earlier administrations. The [Martin Luther] King episode-which in my view is the single most reprehensible example of unjustified intrusion that we are aware of-is enough to raise serious questions about national security wiretap policies during the Kennedy and Johnson administrations.... That the King tap was authorized by well meaning good guys with beneficent purposes only demonstrates how pervasive the problem of wiretapping has been.

"I kept my underwear on": The newest legal defense in ethics
By Harvard Legal Scholar Alan Dershowitz

Alan Dershowitz: Sure I Got a Massage at Jeffrey Epstein’s Mansion, but I Kept My Underwear On

Welp, welcome to the slippery sleazy slope that comes with billionaire Jeffrey Epstein’s recent arrest for child sex trafficking.

Internet sleuths have uncovered a 2015 video of Harvard attorney and Epstein’s friend, Alan Dershowitz, who worked to get Epstein a sweetheart deal in a 2008 plea agreement, admitting to getting a massage at Epstein’s mansion.

During an interview with Miami news station WPLG regarding Britain’s Prince Andrew (another friend of Epstein) and his alleged sexual involvement with an underaged girl who was allegedly kept as a sex slave by Epstein, Dershowitz not only bashed the accuser, calling her an “admitted prostitute and a serial liar” but claimed that the then-teen was not victimized and in fact “made her own decisions in life.”

Dershowitz admitted to being at the billionaire’s home but noted that he’d never seen an underaged girl at Epstein’s place despite sworn testimony from Epstein’s former butler who claimed that Dershowitz was at the residence at the same time that underaged girls were there. Dershowitz has an easy explanation for that: “Were there young women in another part of the house giving massages while I was around? I have no idea of that!”

Oh, and did Dershowitz ever receive a massage at Epstein’s house? Yep. But Dershowitz claimed that it was from an adult woman and he kept his underwear on.

“I kept my underwear on during the massage. I don’t like massages particularly.”

Watch the entire interview below but I warn you, it’s triggering and mad cringey.
