House Oversight Committee formally requests Dershowitz interview for Jeffrey Epstein investigation

The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform is requesting Harvard Law School professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz appear for a transcribed interview next month. A letter from Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., explains that the committee is investigating disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell as part of an effort to understand sex-trafficking rings and how the federal government can effectively combat them. 
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. Dershowitz previously said if he is called to testify, 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.”
Comer’s letter states that the committee will be agreeing to the request. The interview will be videotaped, and a transcript will be released to the public “as expeditiously as practical.” 
The interview is scheduled for July 9, 2026, at 10 a.m. ET in Washington, D.C.
