Summary
A letter to the editor of The Harvard Crimson written by Alan Dershowitz, dated December 5, 2018. Dershowitz criticizes The Crimson for omitting his defense against Virginia Roberts' accusations, which he characterizes as 'wilfully false' and motivated by financial gain from Leslie Wexner. He asserts that travel, financial, and TV records, reviewed by a former FBI Director, prove he was never present at the locations (Caribbean, New Mexico, etc.) where Roberts claimed to have met him.
