Guilt By Accusation – Dershowitz (1)

Epstein’s death left many unsolved mysteries which should be investigated. At the center of these mysteries is Leslie Wexner. Wexner’s business relationships with Epstein have received considerable attention, but there has been little coverage of their long term personal relationships and the accusations made by Giuffre that Wexner had sex with her, and perhaps others. 51 A deep mystery surrounds the decision by attorney David Boies not to pursue Wexner, to whom, according to Giuffre, she was sexually trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein on multiple occasions while she was underage.

52 Readers may be unaware of these allegations because Boies deep-sixed them after meeting with Wexner’s lawyer. The question is, why? Did Boies not believe his client’s accusations against Wexner? If he did believe them, did Wexner pay hush money to keep the accusations from becoming public? The answer may lie in the following documented, but suppressed, story that I have asked prosecutors to investigate. In mid-2014, Giuffre’s original lawyer, a former Assistant Attorney General named Stanley Pottinger, asked Boies to help represent Giuffre. Boies agreed.

According to a sworn affidavit filed by Pottinger: In the fall of 2014, I asked Mr. Boies if the firm represented, or if he knew, Mr. Leslie Wexner. I told him that in the course of investigating facts related to Mr. Epstein’s sex trafficking, Mr. Wexner had been identified as a close business associate and personal friend of Mr. Epstein.

I told Mr. Boies that there were assertions that Mr. Wexner had permitted Mr. Epstein to use, and entertain on, Mr. Wexner’s yacht, and that Mr. Wexner was alleged to have had sex with one or more of Mr. Epstein’s girls, including Ms. Giuffre . (emphasis added) The Pottinger affidavit disclosed that in December of 2014—precisely the same time I was being publicly accused in court papers by Giuffre of having had sex with her—Boies’s firm asked to meet with Wexner privately . As previously noted, Boies and his partner then met with Wexner’s lawyer and told him, according to the lawyer, that Giuffre was accusing him of sexual misconduct similar to that of which she was falsely accusing me.

As I’ve said, both Wexner’s wife and his lawyer used the word “shakedown” when telling me about Boies’s approach to Wexner. They also said the accusations were untrue. We don’t know precisely what transpired at the secret meeting, but we do know, from the records of the case, that following the meeting, Wexner’s name disappeared from court filings, and no public accusation, of the kind made against me, was ever leveled against Wexner by Boies or his client.

In the recently unsealed deposition of Giuffre taken in 2016, she accuses many prominent figures of having sex with her, but not Wexner, though she had earlier accused him in secret.
