UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 
SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA 
Case No. 08-80736-CIV-MARRA/JOHNSON 
JANE DOE #1 AND JANE DOE #2, 
Plaintiffs, 
vs. 
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, 
Defendant. 
REPLY IN SUPPORT OF MOTION 
FOR LIMITED INTERVENTION BY ALAN M. DERSHOWITZ 
Alan M. Dershowitz hereby replies in support of his Motion for Limited Intervention (DE 
282). Prof. Dershowitz's only interest in joining this case is to strike the false, sensational and 
irrelevant allegations against him. In its response (DE 290), the government compellingly set 
forth the many reasons why Jane Does #3 and #4's request, filed over 8 years after the 
commencement of the CVRA case, should be denied. Jane Doe #3's false allegations against 
Prof. Dershowitz were not included in her statement to the government, were not made to the 
FBI when she was initially contacted by that agency, were not included in her civil action against 
Epstein in 2009, and were not included in her recorded interview with her attorneys in 2011. 
These allegations first appeared in Jane Doe #3's Motion for Joinder in December 2014 (DE 
279), and therefore have absolutely no relevance as to whether there was a CVRA violation 
when Epstein and the government executed the Non-Prosecution Agreement in September 2007. 
The request for limited intervention was initiated to give Dershowitz a voice in the proceedings 
if and only if the Court allowed the joinder of Jane Doe 3 and her untimely allegations to the 
EFTA01184679

underlying CVRA case. If the Court strikes the allegations against him sua sponte, Prof. 
Dershowitz will withdraw his motion for limited intervention. However, if the Court grants Jane 
Does #3 and #4's motion for joinder (DE 279), then Prof. Dershowitz's motion for limited 
intervention should be granted for such purposes as may be appropriate including submitting a 
motion to strike or other relief, so as to give him an opportunity to defend himself against these 
malicious and false allegations. In support of his Reply in Support of his Motion for Limited 
Intervention, Prof. Dershowitz states as follows: 
Despite doubling down on her falsehoods about Prof. Dershowitz, Jane Doe #3 struggles 
to justify the vicious smears as having any relevance to the issues in this proceeding. Her 
Response to Prof. Dershowitz's Motion for Limited Intervention (DE 291) (herein "Response") 
offers no legitimate reason for defaming Prof. Dershowitz in her Joinder Motion, and she has no 
right to continue to do so in this Court. Strikingly, the Response does not explain why Jane Doe 
#3, discredited and disbelieved, and with an obvious financial motive for fabrication of salacious 
accusations, waited almost seven years to lob a stink bomb into a proceeding in which she has no 
right to participate. The Response does not account for why Jane Doe #3 never once asserted her 
accusations about Prof. Dershowitz until a month ago even though the alleged transgressions 
supposedly occurred some fifteen years ago. Although neither Jane Doe #3 nor anyone else had 
previously asserted any improper sexual contact with Prof. Dershowitz, now Jane Doe #3 
cynically exploits the yoke of victimhood to victimize others. 
At bottom, Jane Doe #3's Response is nothing but a paper-thin pastiche of conspiracy 
theory and outright misrepresentation that crumbles upon the slightest examination. Invocations 
of the Fifth Amendment by nonparty witnesses in response to innocuous questions about Prof. 
Dershowitz are said to take on a "sinister cast"; yet these same witnesses invoked their right 
2 
EFTA01184680

against self-incrimination to almost every question asked of them, including their parents' 
names. Prof. Dershowitz, as Epstein's former legal counsel, is one of hundreds of people listed 
in an address book purloined by Jeffrey Epstein's criminal butler; yet because Prof. Dershowitz's 
name is circled in the address book by an unknown person for unknown reasons, the argument is 
made that Prof. Dershowitz must have sexually abused a minor. The record shows that while 
Prof. Dershowitz and Jane Doe #3 are both mentioned in the flight logs of Mr. Epstein's private 
plane, they are never listed on the same flight. Plaintiffs, in turn, falsely claim that somehow 
Prof. Dershowitz single-handedly orchestrated the destruction of logs without any evidence of 
ability or possibility to do so. In fact Prof. Dershowitz never saw the logs prior to their 
publication this month. The increasingly unfounded accusations and insults are both sad and 
irresponsible. 
It is precisely this toxic mix of irrelevancy, malicious falsehood, and empty accusation 
that justifies Prof. Dershowitz's intervention to, at least, strike the allegations against him. Jane 
Doe #3 never had any need to drag Prof. Dershowitz into this action besides to wrongfully use 
his good name and international stature to stir up media interest in her filing. 
This is 
impertinence, plain and simple, and it has no place in this Court. Prof. Dershowitz therefore 
urges the Court to either allow him to intervene to strike Jane Doe #3's defamatory allegations or 
deny Jane Doe #3's Joinder Motion so she is no longer afforded the ability to use the docket of 
this Court to defame others without being held accountable and strike these allegations from the 
record.

EFTA01184681

I. 
Jane Doe #3's Continued Smears of Prof. Dershowitz 
Demonstrate His Need to Intervene 
Jane Doe #3 and her counsel's actions over the past month have confirmed that Prof. 
Dershowitz's request for intervention stands upon dramatically different circumstances than 
other intervention motions in this case, or any other case for that matter. Simply put, the scope 
and tenor of their attacks against Prof. Dershowitz differ both in degree and in kind from other 
reputational muggings conducted in the case before this Court. Nor is there a single reported 
decision in federal case law in which the vitriol, severity, and length of the attacks against a 
nonparty approach those levelled against Prof. Dershowitz here. What has become further 
apparent is that if Prof. Dershowitz is not allowed to intervene, Jane Doe #3 and her counsel will 
proceed with their attacks against him, all the more emboldened with complete impunity. 
While Jane Doe #3 asks to "prove" her allegations against Prof. Dershowitz, she argues 
paradoxically that he does not have "any direct interest" in defending these allegations. Instead, 
she directs Prof. Dershowitz to defend the allegations that she makes in a contrived lawsuit filed 
by her attorneys against him in Broward County Circuit Court for defamation of them. 
Moreover, the law cited by Prof. Dershowitz, including the Sackman and Penthouse cases, 
demonstrates a need and entitlement to intervene to vindicate his legitimate reputational interest 
that no other party is situated to protect. "The individual's right to the protection of his own 
good name reflects no more than our basic concept of essential dignity and worth of every 
human being — a concept at the root of any decent system of ordered liberty..." Krause?. v. 
Evolution Holdings, Inc., 975 F.Supp. 2d 1247, 1260 (S.D. Fla. 2013); quoting Spencer v. 
Kemna, 523 U.S. 1, 24 n. 5 (1998) (Stevens, J., dissenting). 
4 
EFTA01184682

In an effort to cite contrary law to the Court, Jane Doe #3's Response takes remarkable 
liberties in describing what is claimed to be the law to Court. For example, the Response quotes 
Calloway v. Westinghouse Elec. Corp., 115 F.R.D. 73, 74 (M.D. Ga. 1987) for the proposition 
that "a witness' interest in his reputation alone . . . does not constitute the required `interest 
relating to the property or transaction which is the subject of the present action' necessary to 
allow intervention as a matter of right." Yet what is excised from that quote through the ellipses 
is the most crucial part of the case: "following a finding by a court that he is not credible." 
Calloway actually stands for the proposition that a witness cannot intervene in a case as of right 
if the Court has found him not credible in one of its orders. This finding has never been made as 
to Prof. Dershowitz either in this Court, or in hundreds of others in which he has appeared. 
II. 
Jane Doe #3's Lies About Prof. Dershowitz 
Are Wholly Irrelevant to This Action 
Meanwhile, Jane Doe #3 fails to come up with a single credible reason for naming Prof. 
Dershowitz in her Joinder Motion. First, she claims she needed to drag Prof. Dershowitz's name 
through the mud to prove that Jane Doe #3 was a victim of sexual abuse by Jeffrey Epstein. Yet, 
in her Joinder Motion, she states that "Nile Government was well aware of Jane Doe #3 when it 
was negotiating the NPA, as it listed her as a victim in the attachment to the NPA." (DE 279 at 
6.) If she was already listed as a victim on the NPA, why would they need to prove that further 
by adding pages of scurrilous allegations against various individuals? And why did they have to 
mention Prof. Dershowitz by name, when elsewhere they claim that "numerous prominent 
American politicians, powerful business executives, foreign presidents, a well-known Prime 
5 
EFTA01184683

Minister, and other world leaders" committed sexual abuse, but keep those alleged figures 
anonymous? The bad faith against Prof. Dershowitz is apparent'. 
Second, Jane Doe #3 claims that she needed to name Prof. Dershowitz and others in the 
Joinder Motion because of discovery disputes between the government and Jane Doe #1 and Jane 
Doe #2. This does not even make sense, legally or factually. Jane Doe #3's right to join in this 
case has nothing to do with Jane Doe #1 and Jane Doe #2's entitlement to documents in 
discovery. In fact, the discovery requests that Jane Doe #3 cites to in her Response as purported 
cover for their sliming of Prof Dershowitz show that their argument is factually bogus. Prof. 
Dershowitz is mentioned in only two of twenty-five requests for production propounded by Jane 
Doe #1 and Jane Doe #2. (See Jane Doe #1 and Jane Doe #2's First Request for Production to 
the Government Regarding Information Relevant to Their Pending Action Concern [sic] the 
Crime Victims Act, at DE 225-1 at 26-38.) 
Both requests, nos. 8 and 21 seek his 
communications with the government in his role as Mr. Epstein's defense attorney. There is no 
issue of complicity or knowledge in any misconduct. Moreover, a fact conveniently omitted by 
Jane Doe #3 is that Prof. Dershowitz is one of eleven lawyers whose communications Jane Doe 
#1 and Jane Doe #2 sought in the requests for production. As the Court knows, Prof. Dershowitz 
had no material connection to this case-as to the merits or as to discovery—before he was 
dragged in by Jane Doe #3. 
I Similarly, Jane Doe #3's allegations that she named Prince Andrew because of outstanding 
discovery requests regarding her belief that Prince Andrew was somehow involved in "lobbying 
efforts to persuade the Government to give him a more favorable plea arrangement," and because 
her allegations against Prince Andrews occurred in London, therefore "affect[ing] foreign 
commerce" are patently absurd. (DE 291 at 20 and 18, fn. 10.) Because Jane Doe #3's other 
allegations are replete with interstate activity and because implications of Prince Andrew's 
involvement in "lobbying" for the NPA are entirely nonsensical, it is obvious that the inclusion 
of claims against Prince Andrew were included solely for their intended audience: the media. 
6 
EFTA01184684

Third, Jane Doe #3 claims that the smears against Prof. Dershowitz are relevant to show 
that Prof. Dershowitz had a motive to negotiate "confidentiality" and "blank check" provisions 
into the NPA entered into between the government and Mr. Epstein. Again, this argument makes 
no sense in the context of this case.2 The inclusion of certain provisions in the agreement simply 
has nothing to do with whether the government complied with its obligations under the Crime 
Victims' Rights Act ("CVRA"). If anything, it is the government's motive that would be at 
issue—although even that point is doubtful—not the defense attorneys'. Moreover, because the 
first time Jane Doe #3 made these contemptible allegations against Prof. Dershowitz was in her 
Motion for Joinder in December 2014, those allegations are irrelevant as to the inquiry of 
whether Jane Doe #3's rights under the CVRA were violated at the time the NPA was entered. 
The government confirms that when Jane Doe #3 was contacted by the FBI about this 
investigation, she clearly "stated that she did not want to be involved in the federal 
investigation." (DE 290 at 6.) She was not "kept in the dark" as she alleges in her Response. 
(DE 291 at 25.) Instead, she apparently chose to stay in the dark. Moreover, she did not make 
any allegations against Prof. Dershowitz at the time the NPA was entered, nor did she made any 
allegations against Prof. Dershowitz in her action for civil damages in 2009, nor did she make 
any allegations against Prof. Dershowitz in her tape recorded interview with her attorney in 
2011. The first time these allegations surfaced were in connection with Jane Doe #3's Motion 
for Joinder in this action. The allegations have absolutely no relevance to the underlying issue of 
whether Jane Doe #3 was "treated with fairness" when the NPA was entered, as the allegations 
against Prof. Dershowitz did not surface until approximately eight years later. Moreover, if the 
2 Prof. Dershowitz, along with many other lawyers, was involved in negotiating the plea bargain 
under which Epstein agreed to plead guilty to State charges in exchange for an agreement not to 
prosecute him federally. However, he was not involved in drafting the text of the NPA. 
7 
EFTA01184685

government had any reason to believe that Prof. Dershowitz was involved in any criminal 
activity they would have immediately demanded his recusal rather than continuing to work with 
him as one of Epstein's attorneys in negotiating a plea bargain. 
Fourth, Jane Doe #3 then makes the facially absurd and libelous claim that somehow 
Prof. Dershowitz must have drafted and benefited from the "co-conspirators" clause of the NPA. 
But the link between the need to include these allegations and their ability to rescind the "co-
conspirators" clause goes completely unexplained. The allegations are completely gratuitous, as 
there is no such link. No such claim existed until fabricated by Jane Doe #3 many years after the 
NPA was signed and fully performed. Additionally, as stated in Prof. Dershowitz's Supplement 
to his Motion for Limited Intervention, this "co-conspirator" provision "was intended to apply to 
four alleged co-conspirators, who were named in the original NPA and later redacted at their 
request.... Alan Dershowitz was never alleged to be a potential co-conspirator." (DE 285 at 43.) 
Incredibly, Jane Doe #3's counsel, Bradley Edwards, agreed with this reading of the NPA 
in his Statement of Undisputed Fact during his own personal lawsuit against Jeffrey Epstein 
(Jeffrey Epstein v. Scott Rothstein and Bradley J. Edwards, lawsuit (Case no. 502009-CA-
040800) in Palm Beach County Circuit Court. 
There, Edwards explained that these co-
conspirators were certain individuals who "procured minor females to be molested by Epstein." 
(DE 291-15 at ¶ 27.) 
In fact, Edwards stated that "One of the co-conspirators a 
even participated in the sex acts with minors (including E.W.) and Epstein." (Id.) 
Only now, when convenient as a way to try to justify allegations against Prof. Dershowitz does 
3 Moreover, it is unlikely that anyone who had sexual contact with Jane Doe #3, or any other 
minor involved in the Epstein case, would be considered to be a "co-conspirator." Instead those 
individuals would be substantive perpetrators, not covered by the agreement. 
8 
EFTA01184686

Edwards argue (on behalf of Jane Doe #3) that the "co-conspirator" provision was actually 
intended to protect Prof. Dershowitz. 
Fifth, Jane Doe #3 claims that she needed to include Prof. Dershowitz in her filing 
because her CVRA claim of "unfair" treatment "implicates a fact-sensitive equitable defense 
which must be considered in the factual context of the entire interface between Epstein, the 
relevant prosecutorial authorities and the federal offense victims." The "facts" to which this 
"defense" is sensitive, even if Jane Doe #3 is allowed to intervene, are the interactions between 
the prosecutors and Jane Doe #3, and not anything pertinent to Prof. Dershowitz personally. Nor 
are attorney-client communications between Epstein and his counsel at issue, or the proper 
subject of discovery in this action under any scenario. 
III. 
Jane Doe #3's Efforts to Bolster Her Lies About 
Prof. Dershowitz Are Remarkably Thin 
Setting aside the utter irrelevancy of the allegations against Prof. Dershowitz, having 
created an international imbroglio by their ill-conceived libels of Prof. Dershowitz, one would 
expect that Jane Doe #3 would be able to muster at least some credible support for their 
allegations. Yet the two "incontestable" facts she leads with in support of her claim that Prof. 
Dershowitz is a serial sex abuser are (1) that Mr. Epstein and Prof. Dershowitz were friends; and 
(2) Prof. Dershowitz visited Mr. Epstein's house. Of course, these supposedly "incontestable" 
facts are evidence of nothing. 
To further illuminate their patent ridiculousness, the Court needs only to read some of the 
deposition testimony of Mr. Epstein's household employee that is attached to but not discussed 
in the Response. Juan Alessi, the employee, testified that Mr. Epstein once hosted an elderly 
Nobel Prize winning scientist or mathematician at his house. (DE 291-17 at 6.) On another 
9 
EFTA01184687

occasion he hosted a lunch at his house to honor Nobel Prize winners. (Id.) Under Jane Doe #3 
and her counsel's logic, these men and women must not only be aware of alleged wrongdoing, 
they must also be complicit. 
Indeed, while the points raised above show a complete lack of investigation into the 
scurrilous allegations, what is most remarkable about Jane Doe #3's Response is what it omits. 
Approximately eight years ago, Jane Doe #3 participated in the authorities' investigation of Mr. 
Epstein, and received a financial settlement from him. Yet she apparently never once mentioned 
Prof. Dershowitz's now supposedly systematic sexual abuse of her to the prosecutors or to her 
own lawyer. No explanation is given for this monumental inconsistency. Nor, despite his 
supposed status as a co-conspirator in a scheme to cover up an underage sex abuse ring, is there 
any explanation given for the fact that Prof. Dershowitz was never even investigated—or even 
mentioned—as a potential suspect. Meanwhile the present case has been proceeding for the last 
seven years, but no explanation has been given for the timing of Jane Doe #3's effort to join this 
case only last month. 
IV. 
Prof. Dershowitz Immediately Responded to Jane Doe #3's Allegations 
Against Him by Asking to Defend his Reputation 
Jane Doe #3 also argues that Prof. Dershowitz should not be allowed to intervene because 
"he has declined to defend his reputation in other actions." (DE 279, at 12.) 
This is 
demonstrably false. It is without question that the Motion for Joinder filed by Jane Doe #3 on 
December 30, 2014 (DE 279) was the first time anyone has ever alleged that Prof. Dershowitz 
had any sexual contact with a minor. It necessarily follows that this is the first opportunity Prof. 
Dershowitz has had to defend his reputation related to "his involvement in Epstein's offenses." 
10 
EFTA01184688

In fact, just six days after these venomous allegations were made, Prof. Dershowitz filed his 
Motion for Limited Intervention. (DE 282.) 
More specifically, Jane Doe #3 argues that when the civil lawsuit was brought by "one of 
the underage females" against Epstein in 2009 (Doe v. Epstein, No. 9:08-80893-ICAM (S.D. 
Fla.), "Dershowitz understood that counsel for many of Epstein's victims believed that mounting 
evidence pointed toward his role extending beyond merely being an attorney for Epstein." (DE 
279 at 13.) This, too, is demonstrably false. Despite this rank and self-serving speculation about 
what Prof. Dershowitz "understood," there is not one piece of evidence which points to any 
allegations that he engaged in any sexual contact with any minor, or even observed any criminal 
activity, prior to the December 30, 2014 Motion for Joinder. Instead, the deposition testimony 
which Jane Doe #3 points to simply states that Prof. Dershowitz visited Epstein's home 
(Deposition Testimony of Alfredo Rodriguez at 199, 278, 279, DE 291-18, herein, "Rodriguez 
Depo. Tr.") Rodriguez specifically testified that he has no idea whether Prof Dershowitz had 
any contact at all with any female. 
Q. And did you have any knowledge of why [Dershowitz] was visiting there? 
A. No ma'am. 
Q. And do you have any idea whether or not Mr. Dershowitz was also receiving 
massages? 
A. I don't know, Ma'am. 
Q. As to whether any of those women were ever associated with Mr. Dershowitz would it 
be a correct statement that you have absolutely no knowledge? 
A. I don't know, sir. 
Q. Okay. Were you in any way attempting in your response to Ms. Ezell to imply that 
Mr. Dershowitz had a massage by one of these young ladies? 
A. I don't know, sir. 
Q. You have no knowledge? 
A. No, sir. 
11 
EFTA01184689

(Rodriguez Depo. Tr. at 279, 280, 385, 386.) To be sure, Rodriguez does testify that Prof. 
Dershowtiz was at Epstein's home when underage females were present at the home — an 
allegation which Dershowitz strenuously denies. However, Rodriguez did not testify that Prof 
Dershowitz saw, interacted with, or touched any of these females. Instead, when asked what 
Prof. Dershowitz did "while those girls were at the house," Rodriguez answered "He will read a 
book with a glass of wine by the pool, stay inside." (Id. at 426, 427.) When asked if Prof. 
Dershowitz ever even spoke to any of the girls, or "even knew that they were there" Rodriguez 
answered "I don't know." (Id. at 427.) This is consistent with the fact that Epstein's home is 
very large and has separate closed-off quarters where Epstein resided. Prof. Dershowitz never 
stepped into these private quarters. 
Jane Doe #3 also relies upon the September 8, 2009 deposition testimony of Mr. Juan 
Alessi to "corroborate" Jane Doe #3's sensational and false allegations regarding Prof. 
Dershowitz. However, a more complete examination of that testimony reveals that Alessi did not 
make any allegations of any wrong doing by Dershowitz. (See, DE 291-17, hereinafter "Alessi 
Depo. Tr.") Alessi testified that he saw "many celebrities" at the house, including certain 
senators, royalty, beauty queens, Noble Prize winners, "and other famous people...[including] a 
very famous lawyer[] that I'm sure you know, Alan Dershowitz, who spend [sic] at the house a 
couple times." (Alessi Depo. Tr. 70, 71.) However, Alessi made no allegations of improprieties 
against any of these individuals. Jane Doe #3 asks the Court to infer that because Prof. 
Dershowitz was at his client's home, he must have participated in nefarious activities. In fact, 
Prof. Dershowitz's friendship with Epstein consisted of the exchange of academic and 
intellectual ideas. At most, Alessi testified that Prof. Dershowitz visited Epstein's home and 
received a massage from an adult massage therapist, which "was a treat for everybody" at the 
12 
EFTA01184690

Epstein home. (Id. at 74) ("Q. Did [Dershowitz] have massages sometimes when he was there? 
A. Yes. A massage was like a treat for everybody. If they want it, we call the massage and they 
have a massage.") 
Alessi explains that he was referring to massages performed by adult 
massage therapists. (Id. at 184) ("Q. All right. And if I understood your testimony is, the ones 
the — that is, of the massage therapists as you've just described [a hundred, 200 different massage 
therapists], you saw some men? A. Yes. Q. You saw more women? A. Yes. Q. And all of the 
women, at least from your viewpoint, were 18, 19 or older? A. Yes.")4
Messrs. Alessi and Rodriguez did not allege that Prof. Dershowitz received a massage 
from any underage females, had any physical contact whatsoever with any underage females, or 
witnessed anyone engaging in any inappropriate behavior with any underage females. 
Additionally, despite their allegations to the contrary, it is clear that previous testimony from 
Rodriguez and Alessi does not corroborate Jane Doe #3's baseless and utterly false affidavit. 
(DE 291-1.) 
Next, Jane Doe #3 claims that Prof. Dershowitz declined to defend his reputation in the 
Edwards v. Epstein lawsuit (Case no. 502009-CA-040800) in Palm Beach County Circuit Court. 
(Opp. to Mtn. to Intervene at 13.) 
In support of this allegation, Jane Doe #3 argues that her 
attorney in the instant matter, Bradley Edwards (through his attorney Jack Scarola) contacted 
Prof. Dershowitz to seek his voluntary cooperation in answering questions about Prof. 
Dershowitz's client, Jeffrey Epstein's conduct. Prof. Dershowitz responded by letter stating 
As you may know, I was Jeffrey Epstein's attorney when he submitted his guilty plea. 
Accordingly, "any knowledge" I may have in connection with that plea is privileged 
information. If you would let me know what non-privileged information you would seek 
from me, I would then be able to decide whether to cooperate. 
4 In fact, the only massage Prof. Dershowitz ever received at any of Epstein's homes was from a 
professional massage therapist who was in her 30's or 40s. 
13 
EFTA01184691

(DE 291-11.) Dershowitz sent a second letter on or about August 29, 2011 explaining that he 
has "never personally observed Jeffrey Epstein in the presence of underage females," and asking 
Edwards' attorney to provide him with any alleged basis for his unfounded belief. Edwards' 
attorney responded by stating that based on "sworn testimony and private interviews" he had 
"placed [Dershowitz] in the presence of Jeffrey Epstein on multiple occasions... when Jeffrey 
Epstein was in the company of underage females subsequently identified as victims." (DE 291 at 
13, 14.) Again, no allegations were made at that time by Edwards' attorney, or by anyone else, 
that Prof. Dershowitz engaged in any inappropriate conduct or witnessed any inappropriate 
conduct related to Jeffrey Epstein and underage females. Instead, Edwards was incorrectly 
seeking Prof. Dershowitz's cooperation for a civil suit between Dershowitz's client, Jeffrey 
Epstein, and Edwards himself. 
Remarkably, because Prof. Dershowitz did not agree to 
compromise his ethical obligations to his client, by voluntarily cooperating with Epstein's 
adversaries, Jane Doe #3 argues that Prof. Dershowitz should not be allowed to intervene in this 
actions. 
It is clear from the record, however, that Prof. Dershowitz acted immediately to defend 
himself the first time he was made aware of any such allegations against him. In fact, just six 
days after Jane Doe #3 filed her Motion for Joinder, which included vicious allegations against 
him, Prof. Dershowitz filed his Motion for Limited Intervention. (DE 282.) Accordingly, Prof. 
5 Jane Doe #3's argument that he has not yet scheduled his deposition in this case, or the recently 
filed defamation action, is of no moment. At the appropriate time, Prof. Dershowitz will of 
course, appear for his deposition and testify that Jane Doe #3's allegations as to him are entirely 
false. 
This, however, has no bearing as to whether the Court should permit the limited 
intervention Prof. Dershowitz seeks. 
14 
EFTA01184692

Dershowitz should be permitted to intervene for the limited purposes of moving to strike these 
outrageous and impertinent allegations. 
V. 
Jane Doe #3's Reliance on Other's Invocation of the 
Fifth Amendment is Improper and Wholly Unpersuasive 
Without a shred of physical evidence or witness corroboration for Jane Doe #3's 
fantasies, she relies on invocations of the Fifth Amendment by Epstein as supportive of an 
adverse inference as to Prof. Dershowitz. Given that Epstein was taking the Fifth Amendment 
on virtually all questions, and would have responded in the same way had the opposite questions 
been asked, there is no inference against Prof. Dershowitz to be made from the invocation of the 
Fifth Amendment by Epstein*. 
Epstein's interest — in declining to answer any questions 
whatsoever — was his own personal interest and not that of his lawyers, and lacks even minimal 
relevance. 
Coquina Investments v. TD Bank, N.A., 760 F.3d 1300, 1310-11 (11th Cir. 
2014)(adverse inferences from the fifth amendment invocation by third parties allowed only 
where inference is "trustworthy under all of the circumstances" including relationship, shared 
interest and control); Kontos v. Kontos, 968 F.Supp. 400, 407-408 (1997)(no adverse inference 
allowed from invocation of Fifth Amendment by sister of civil defendant in absence of "identity 
of interests"); Sebastian v. City of Chicago, 2008 WL 2875255 *33-34 (N.D. III. 2008)(no 
adverse inference from invocation of Fifth Amendment in absence of close family or business 
relationship)7. Similarly, any other witnesses taking the Fifth Amendment and remaining silent 
6 Had Epstein been asked about anyone — from leading government officials to members 
of the clergy — he would have similarly invoked the Fifth Amendment. 
7 LETS DISCUSS THIS FOOTNOTE 
The fact is that this controversy is not a swearing contest between two equally 
credible witnesses. On one hand, Prof. Dershowitz is a world-renowned lawyer, professor, 
and author with an impeccable personal and professional reputation. On the other. Jane 
15 
EFTA01184693

to protect themselves are obviously not creating any kind of evidence against Prof. Dershowitz. 
See, Coquina Investments, 760 F.3d at 1310 (11th Cir. 2014) 
Conclusion 
In conclusion, Prof. Dershowitz has no interest in joining this case other than to strike the 
scurrilous and irrelevant allegations against him. If the Court grants Jane Does #3 and #4 motion 
for joinder (DE 279), then Prof. Dershowitz's motion for limited intervention should be granted 
for such purposes as may be appropriate including submitting a motion to strike or other relief, 
so as to give him an opportunity to defend himself against harmful, spiteful and false allegations 
of the worse kind. If the Court rejects the pending motion for joinder, then the Court should 
strike the scurrilous allegations against Dershowitz, or, alternatively, determine the possible 
mootness of his Motion for Limited Intervention. Of course, if the Court strikes the allegations 
against him sua sponte, Prof. Dershowitz will withdraw his motion for limited intervention.

Doe #3, who comes into this case with no legitimate explanation for her delay in levelling 
these accusations against Prof. Dershowitz, has obvious motives to seek financial gain. Her 
lack of credibility has persisted over the years. When she previously made rape allegations 
against others, she was deemed not credible by the State Attorney's Office in Palm Beach 
County., which declined to bring a rape case as alleged by Jane Doe #3 "due to Iherl lack of 
credibility and no substantial likelihood of success at trial." Palm Beach Co. Sheriff's 
Office Offense Report, Case No. 98041883 at 19 (Feb. 28, 1998).
