This document is a page from a rough draft transcript of testimony, likely before the House Oversight Committee. The witness recalls reading a Vanity Fair article in which Alan Dershowitz described a very close relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, noting that Epstein was the only non-family member with whom he shared book drafts. The witness also notes Dershowitz's claim that his friendship was not based on Epstein's wealth (identified as a billionaire), stating he would walk the Coney Island Boardwalk with Epstein even if he had no money.

80
1 had asked him, hey, what do you know about Jeffrey
2 Epstein? And, again, off the top of my head, you want
3 to know what I can remember right now.
4 What I can remember right now is that in the
5 Vanity Fair article, the -- in the Vanity Fair article,
6 Mr. Dershowitz said, I've written 20-some odd books.
7 There's only one person outside my immediate family with
8 whom I share drafts and that's Jeffrey Epstein.
9 So I took that as indicating a very close
10 personal association that, you know, among the people
11 that obviously he's sharing these kinds of things that
12 he wants evaluated before he shares them with the
13 broader world. There's his immediate family and then
14 there's Jeffrey Epstein.
15 There was also another similar quote in the
16 article that indicated that -- that Mr. Dershowitz said
17 that he wasn't interested in Epstein just because he has
18 a lot of money. I mean, Epstein was identified as a
19 billionaire -- billionaire with a B, so the record is
20 clear.
21 But he said, look, if Epstein wants all his
22 money, and I'm paraphrasing here, I will be happy to
23 walk down, you know, the Coney Island Boardwalk with him
24 and discuss things with him, even if he didn't have any
25 money.
