Former Jeffrey Epstein attorney Alan Dershowitz spoke with Fox News host Pete Hegseth on Wednesday concerning the Ghislaine Maxwell guilty verdict, pivoting during the interview to suggest one of the alleged victims was herself potentially guilty of crimes in the sex trafficking case.

Virginia Giuffre is suing Dershowitz for defamation and he has countersued her in turn. Giuffre has leveled charges against Dershowitz claiming that Epstein and Maxwell gave her to Dershowitz for sex two decades ago while she was a teen, alleging he raped her, a claim that the attorney has staunchly denied.

The Harvard Law School professor emeritus discussed with Hegseth Maxwell’s conviction on five of six counts related to sex trafficking. He appeared on the BBC earlier in the day in a wide-ranging interview that also addressed Giuffre and her part in the case.

The BBC would later apologize for interviewing him “without context and allowing him to attack Virginia Giuffre.”

“Well, my main takeaway is that the government was smart enough not to use Virginia Giuffre as a witness. This is a woman who has accused me,” Dershowitz stated, charging that Giuffre has also accused other high-profile individuals she found in Epstein’s “Rolodex.”

“She would have been the key witness if she were credible, but the government simply didn’t believe her. So today was a good day for those people who were accused by her,” he said, referring to Giuffre. “As far as Ghislaine Maxwell is concerned, the government put on witnesses. The witnesses were believed. The jury did come to its conclusion. There will be an appeal.”

Dershowitz would go on to proclaim that he hopes that all the perpetrators related to Maxwell and Epstein are caught. He then broached the subject that Giuffre just might be one of them.

“I hope they have tapes of everybody who was involved. The interesting thing is, the question is who else will be prosecuted? The same woman, Virginia Giuffre, one of the women testified she was 14 or 15 years old. She was brought to Epstein for money by Virginia Giuffre who was well over the age of consent. Virginia Giuffre then, according to the testimony at the trial, got naked, had sex with Jeffrey Epstein in order to facilitate her having sex with Epstein,” Dershowitz pointed out.

“So – Giuffre under the theory of the prosecution – is guilty as well. So the question is who else will be prosecuted? And will Maxwell make a deal? Will she try to get her sentence reduced? This is not yet over. Yes, there are victims, but there are also perpetrators. And some of the people could be both victims and perpetrators. Giuffre could be a victim at one point, but then she became a perpetrator and a perjurer at another point,” he asserted.

Dershowitz also noted that he and his family had met both Maxwell and Epstein numerous times but he had no idea what they were embroiled in.

“I only met Ghislaine Maxwell a handful of times with my wife, with my daughter,” he remarked. “When we met her, she was just Jeffrey Epstein’s girlfriend or former girlfriend. We had no idea that any of these things were going on. You know, I feel bad for everybody involved in this thing.”
