when the hate runs so strong through you, you just pull nonsense out of your ass to try to convince others.
LOL
I mean, im sure none of those attorneys are 'good people'. But rapists and pedophiles? Not really likely.
But rapists and pedophiles? Not really likely
In 1997, Alan Dershowitz wrote an opinion column headlined “Statutory rape is an outdated concept.”
Now, 22 years later, he’s defending the column on Twitter, at an awkward time: Dershowitz was a member of the team that got convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein a plea deal that sent him to prison for 18 months, a sentence that critics today say was unusually brief and lenient. Epstein is now being prosecuted for sex trafficking, and is accused of sexually abusing dozens of underage girls.
Dershowitz, a prominent defense lawyer and emeritus Harvard University law professor, himself faces accusations of sexual abuse from two of Epstein’s alleged victims — Virginia Roberts Giuffre and Sarah Ransome. He vehemently denies the accusations against him.
Fair enough… except for Starr's subsequent actions, beginning with serving as a counsel for sexual assault pervert Jeffrey Epstein, who died by suicide in prison last weekend — according to authorities — while awaiting trial on new charges. To be sure, everyone deserves representation. But the super-wealthy Epstein had choices, and in 2008 Starr willingly accepted and negotiated a sweetheart plea deal.
Thanks to the Miami Herald, that deal later came under withering criticism. This past March, Starr and his fellow Epstein counsels wrote a letter to the New York Times taking issue with the criticism, claiming the number of Epstein's victims "has been vastly exaggerated" and "there was no international sex trafficking operation." Yet, last month Epstein was seized and indicted by the Manhattan U.S. Attorney for pervasive sex trafficking.
After firing him in 2016, the University's regents told the Wall Street Journal that during Starr's tenure, 19 Baylor players were accused of sexual or domestic assault, including four gang rapes. Starr personally reinstated one football player, who is now serving a 20-year prison term for committing multiple rapes.
On his firing, Starr told the Journal that some regents were out to get him and that "I personally have doubts that there were gang rapes."

Right. All accusers of Epstein and his clients are liars.
Epstein never did anything wrong.

True. But doing so shouldnt be a problem. All money is green. I know a real nice guy who is an attorney that is representing a real dumbass in a murder for hire plot. Doesnt mean hes a bad guy. Hes just doing his lawful job.
Although i fall back to my stateement...most attorneys are turds
Except your reasonings have no merit and are simply deluded opinions

It doesn't matter whether or not Starr and Dershowitz dabbled in Epstein's inventory, as far as the Senate trial is concerned. Their addition to Trump's legal team just speaks to the kinds of people Trump surrounds himself with.
