One media site, TMZ, reviewed all the unsealed documents and headlined its account “Victim Told To Name-Drop Dershowitz To Sell Her Book.”

It reported Sharon Churcher, a British tabloid journalist, urged Giuffre in 2011 to include me in her book proposal, despite the absence of any evidence I did anything wrong, because I’m famous and represented high-profile clients.

Giuffre told Churcher over email she had a ghostwriter to tell her story about being victimized by Epstein, saying, “I wanted to put the names of those a–holes, oops I meant to say, pedo’s, that J.E. sent me to.”

“Don’t forget Alan Dershowitz,” Churcher replied. “J.E. buddy and lawyer — good name for your pitch as he repped Claus van Bulow and a movie was made about that case.”

[Dershowitz is gracious towards Giuffre, who did eventually recant her identification publicly, which resulted in the dropping of opposing lawsuits. But Dershowitz uses this as a lesson for why *full* disclosure is necessary, and anything less may be worse than no disclosure at all. To use Alexander Pope’s observation, “A *little* knowledge is a dangerous thing.” — Ed]
