Either it will be me or the two lawyers.” But if Dershowitz was swinging for the fences in his struggle to keep his hard-earned reputation afloat, he still had a bomb- shell to drop. When deposed by Scarola, he proposed his own theory about why Virginia Roberts had named him, along with Prince Andrew, as one of the men who had sexually abused her at Epstein’s New Mexico ranch, in New York City, and in Palm Beach. A theory that implicated the lawyers who were suing him ina much larger conspiracy. According to Dershowitz, Brad Edwards pressured Virginia Roberts into identifying Dershowitz as one her assailants. Dershowitz said that Edwards did this so that they could blackmail Jeffrey Epstein’s patron Leslie Wexner for one billion dollars. Roberts lied about him, Dershowitz maintained, to give Wexner an idea of what would happen to him if Edwards's demands weren't met. Furthermore, Dershowitz said, he had proof. 252 | 4 oll ve ..

As for Jeffrey Epstein, one question that might be worth ask- ing is, if he’s in fact a narcissist and megalomaniac, could he actually believe that he’s innocent? Then again, that might be the wrong question. Epstein did plead guilty, after all. But what if he simply doesn’t see what he pleaded to as a crime? What if he’s proud of his lifestyle? And if that’s the case, why wouldn't Prince Andrew be proud to be seen in public with his dear friend Jetfrey Epstein?

Invoking the US constitution’s fifth amendment, which protects against self-incrimination, Polish-born Ross, 27, replied: “I refuse to answer.” She was also asked “Have you ever met Prince Andrew?” and “Have you ever flown on [Epstein’s| plane with Prince Andrew?” Ross refused to answer. Flight logs show that Andrew was a passenger on Epstein’s jet in May 2000. In Ross’s interview it was alleged that the former Elite agency model travelled on the aircraft more than 50 times. It has been claimed that Epstein abused young girls on the jet. There is no suggestion that Andrew had sexual contact with any of the girls or that he knew Epstein abused them. Ross’s deposition will raise more questions about the prince’s judgment after he met the billionaire in New York in December following Epstein’s release from prison. Allegations have been made against Epstein by up to 40 girls, with at least 17 cases settled out of court. Epstein is said to have abused girls as young as 12. He secured protection for his associates through a non- prosecution agreement. The federal document names Ross as a possible co-conspirator. Lawyers acting for Epstein’s victims in the civil courts are challenging the agreement and claim it may lead to Andrew being asked to give evidence. In an interview with Bradley Edwards, a lawyer who represents some of the victims, Ross said she moved to Florida in 2002 after Elite obtained a visa for her to work in America. The model was then hired to work in Epstein
