Dershowitz says he wants ‘complete transparency’ if he testifies in House Oversight’s Epstein probe

Harvard Law School professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz, who previously represented Jeffrey Epstein, said Wednesday that he would like “complete transparency” if he testifies in front of the House Oversight Committee as part of its Epstein probe.House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., commented earlier in the day that he would like Dershowitz to testify in the probe, along with acting Attorney General Todd Blanche. Bill Gates was interviewed in the probe Wednesday.
Dershowitz said he has not received a letter about his potential testimony but that if he is called to testify, then he wants it “videotaped, under oath and open to the public. I want complete transparency.”
“I’m very proud of my role in representing Epstein. I’m prepared to testify about everything,” Dershowitz told NewsNation. “I offered to testify, volunteered for the past few months. I will personally not invoke privilege. I have nothing to hide. I hope they have videos of Epstein’s rooms … bedrooms. I’m willing to testify truthfully about Les Wexner. All of it.”
Dershowitz, who helped secure a plea deal for Epstein in 2008, fought a years-long legal battle over accusations from the now-deceased Epstein victim, Virginia Giuffre, who recanted her allegations before her death.
Comer said he wants Dershowitz to testify based on comments Epstein’s former assistant, Lesley Groff, made in her interview with the panel Tuesday, and conversations Comer had with some of Epstein’s survivors.
“We will have questions for him,” Comer said, according to The Hill. “We’re going to give him an opportunity to come in and answer several questions that arose yesterday based on Ms. Groff’s testimony and some things that some of the Epstein survivors said.”
The committee has already conducted multiple interviews with government officials and people who knew Epstein, including former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
