Case 1:19-cv-03377 Document 1 Filed 04/16/19 Page 6 of 28 (c) December 2, 2018: “I was ‘deliberately framed for financial reasons’”; Roberts made her claims about Dershowitz “in order to obtain money from a wealthy businessman and that Roberts had never previously included me among the people with whom she claimed to have had sex”; “one of Roberts’ own lawyers has acknowledged in front of witnesses that Roberts claims against me are ‘wrong’ ‘simply wrong’”; “I never met Roberts; I never had sex with her; she simply made up the entire story for money”. (Exhibit 3). (d) December 4, 2018: Plaintiff is a “certified, complete, total liar”; “I can prove conclusively that she made the whole thing up”. At the same time Dershowitz claimed “that the FBI recognized the evidence showed he was not where she said he was”. (Exhibit 4). (e) December 5, 2018: “Roberts made up the accusations out of whole cloth in order to obtain millions of dollars from Leslie Wexner” and “there is evidence that directly proves I was framed. These include emails between Roberts and a journalist, a book manuscript by Roberts and a legal brief that are smoking guns showing that I was deliberately framed for financial reasons.” (Exhibit 5). (f) March 2, 2019: “My perjuring accusers are Virginia Roberts and Sarah Ransome [who reported that Epstein lent her out to Dershowitz for sex at the same time as Dershowitz was, at Epstein’s request, representing Ransome as her lawyer]. Both have long records of lying”. (Exhibit 6). 18. | Dershowitz and Epstein knew Dershowitz’s assertions about Roberts, including his assertions referenced in paragraph 17 above, were, and would be taken by persons who read and heard them to be, specific statements of fact. 6 HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_017940
