Summary
This document is a page from a court filing (Case 1:19-cv-03377) containing a statement by Alan Dershowitz responding to a Raw Story article titled 'Trump Defender Alan Dershowitz is deeply involved in the sordid Jeffrey Epstein scandal.' In the text, Dershowitz categorically denies ever meeting or having sex with Virginia Roberts, claiming she fabricated the story for money, and challenges her to repeat the claims out of court so he can sue for defamation. An Editor's Note from Raw Story clarifies that their article reported on accusations leveled by others rather than making the claims directly.
