As Acosta prepares to testify before Congress, the Miami Herald attempts to defang Epstein defender and legal bully Alan Dershowitz, whose weaponized legal tactics derailed justice in the Epstein case.
Dersh:
An Open Letter to the Pulitzer Prize Committee: Don't Reward Fake News
by Alan M. Dershowitz April 3, 2019 at 10:00 am
"Julie K. Brown refused to investigate and/or publish highly credible information that undercut the simplistic and largely false narrative fed her by her biased sources. I know, because I have been providing her with much of the documents and information she chose to bury rather than report..." Read his full claims, here.
On Twitter:
"Pulitzers shouldn't encourage fake news and false “me too” accusations. Don't give the prize to @MiamiHerald for its uncritical reliance on a proven liar as its principal source and it unwillingness to publish evidence that undercut its source."
The Herald:
1. "Miami Herald reporter @jkbjournalist and her editor met with Alan Dershowitz Monday for a lengthy, off-the-record briefing regarding her investigative series #PerversionofJustice, which re-examines the case of serial sex abuser Jeffrey Epstein and his remarkably light punishment."
2. "Mr. Dershowitz was not the primary focus of the series. But he was Mr. Epstein’s friend and lawyer, and helped fashion his plea deal. One of the teenage victims also accused Mr. Dershowitz of sexually abusing her, a fact that has been reported numerous times over several years."
3. "At Monday’s meeting, Mr. Dershowitz read select passages from voluminous documents that he said vindicated him. He declined to let the journalists examine the documents or take copies."
4. "Since #PerversionofJustice published the following has happened:"
5. "Lawmakers have demanded an investigation into whether then-U.S. attorney Alexander Acosta acted properly." https://archive.fo/gTx7C
6. "Mr. Epstein settled a lawsuit filed by lawyers for some of his victims. He issued an apology — to the lawyers, not the victims."
https://web.archive.org/web/20190404021240/https://www.miamiherald.com/latest-news/article223315075.html
7. "The Department of Justice’s internal watchdog opened an investigation into Mr. Acosta’s role in the secret negotiation that spared Mr. Epstein." https://archive.fo/1nAfC
8. "A federal judge ruled that the non-prosecution agreement Mr. Dershowitz helped fashion violated the Crime Victims Rights Act, which requires that victims be apprised of all plea deals." https://archive.fo/OOu8L
9. "The Herald successful petitioned a New York court for the release of sealed court documents in New York that could reveal evidence of a broader sexual trafficking ring." https://archive.fo/Z5l0x
10. "The Miami Herald stands by its story. You can read Part 1 of #PerversionofJustice here:" https://archive.fo/m3OUx

Alan M Dershowitz... you are a rapist of children. https://www.nytimes.com/2015/01/04/us/prince-andrew-and-alan-dershowitz-are-named-in-suit-alleging-sex-with-minor.html "The motion requests to add two more alleged victims to the case, including the woman, identified as “Jane Doe No. 3,” who said she had sexual relations with Prince Andrew and Mr. Dershowitz when she was underage."
What does Andrew have to say??? https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/theroyalfamily/11363455/Prince-Andrew-says-my-focus-is-my-work-as-he-makes-first-public-statement-about-sex-abuse-claims.html
Speaking at an event for entrepreneurs at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, he said:
"Firstly I think I must for the record refer to the events that have taken place over the last few weeks. "I wish to reiterate and reaffirm the statements already made on my behalf by Buckingham Palace. My focus is on my work." (which is selling weapons to dictators.. and enjoying underaged girl prostitutes.. like pretty much every single Royal since Queen Victoria's brood of perverts came of age..) (interesting points.....) The Duke arrived at his Pitch@Palace event, where budding businessmen are introduced to established entrepreneurs, five minutes early, looking relaxed and at ease as he joined around 200 guests.
They included Cherie Blair, Lord Mandelson, Bob Diamond, the ex Barclays boss; the Icap chief executive Michael Spencer and BBC News chief James Harding.
George Osborne, the Chancellor, arrived late and missed the Duke's speech, while Tony Blair stayed for five minutes to hear the start of the speech and left.
(Cherie Blair : “Hilary [sic] can you give me a telephone number the Qatar Crown Prince can ring you on and he will get in touch. Alternatively I can get his personal phone number for you. What is best for you?”) Tony Blair : https://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/latest-news/418816/Jeffrey-Epstein-Prince-Andrew-sex-scandal quote : "Court documents show banker Jeffrey Epstein kept multiple phone numbers, email and home addresses for a host of VIPs, ranging from Bill Clinton, 68, to Sir Mick Jagger, 71. Former Prime Minister Tony Blair, 61, is recorded once, while his former cabinet minister Lord Peter Mandelson, also 61, has 10 phone numbers entered." Lord Mandelson : https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1364001/Peter-Mandelson-silent-contact-Prince-Andrew-friend-Jeffrey-Epstein.html Bob Diamond..

Interesting. I knew that he is listed in the book, but I didn't recall that Epstein had so many of his numbers.

Mandelson is a problem... 1980's... 1978-1983: Architects of PIE infiltrate Islington gay youth group to lobby MPs directly with Heath & Mandelson’s help https://bitsofbooksblog.wordpress.com/tag/peter-mandelson/
Quote : "In 1978 Peter Righton and PIE Manifesto author Micky Burbidge team up to exert control over grassroots gay youth groups, establishing the umbrella Joint Council for Gay Teenagers (‘JCGT’) Righton & Burbidge take control of the London Gay Teenage Group (‘LGTG’) liaising with the Greater London Council and ILEA for official recognition and relocating the LGTG to Islington, Manor Gardens Community Centre In 1980 Chair Edward Heath and his Youth Affairs Lobby (‘YAL’) meet with Burbidge and the LGTG With the assistance of YAL Liaison member the British Youth Council (‘BYC’) and its Chair Peter Mandelson, Burbidge gets to take a group of gay teenagers to lobby a group of cross-party MPs directly with Clement Freud MP (Lib), Charles Irving MP (Con) attending with 4 Labour MPs" April-July 1980: JCGT’s success Burbidge goes to Parliament with the help of Mandelson and Heath " Burbidge’s triumphant if little-reported arrival in the House of Commons with an entourage of teenagers was facilitated by the Youth Affairs lobby, an early version of the Youth Parliament, chaired by Edward Heath MP, with the help of a YAL Liaison Group Committee member – the British Youth Council, chaired by Peter Mandelson."
2008 - Peter Mandelson profile: The Prince of Darkness returns https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/labour/3127802/Peter-Mandelson-profile-The-Prince-of-Darkness-returns.html
Quote : "He (Peter Mandelon) quit as Trade Secretary in December 1998 after it emerged that he had failed to declare an interest-free loan from Geoffrey Robinson, a millionaire Labour MP whose business dealings were being investigated by his department. And in January 2001 he was sacked by Mr Blair after it was suggested he had put pressure on a Home Office minister to give British citizenship to Srichand Hinduja, an Indian businessman who had sponsored the Millennium Dome. The allegations were later disproved. His time in Government also saw some less serious - yet embarrassing blunders. While Trade Secretary he was also the minister in charge of the much-criticised Millennium Dome project, which he promised would "blow your socks off". " Yet Mr Mandelson was born in 1953 into a Labour family - his grandfather was Herbert Morrison, a Labour Cabinet minister. He decided to join the Young Communist League after Labour supported the US war in Vietnam. "After moving through Oxford university, the TUC, a London council and London Weekend Television, Mr Mandelson became the Labour party's director of communications and was elected MP for Hartlepool in 1992" "However he returned to prominence in 2004, quitting as an MP to become Trade Commissioner at the creation of the post at the behest of Mr Blair. "
2008 - Q&A: Peter Mandelson, Oleg Deripaska and George Osborne https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2008/oct/21/mandelson-georgeosborne Quote : "The row initially began shortly after Gordon Brown shocked the political world by reappointing Peter Mandelson, then the EU's trade commissioner and a sworn enemy of the prime minister, to the cabinet. Soon afterwards it was claimed that Mandelson had "dripped pure poison" about him during a meeting with George Osborne two months earlier at Taverna Agni on the Greek island of Corfu." "The encounter on the 238ft (73m) Queen K in Corfu this summer was said to be the latest in a series of social meetings between Mandelson and Oleg Deripaska - known as the "king of aluminium" - during Mandelson's term as trade commissioner." "One week later, the Sunday Times claimed Mandelson gave trade concessions worth up to £50m a year to Russia's richest man after being entertained by him on his "superyacht"."
Peter Mandelson is a great friend of Nat Rothschild, the son of JACOB ROTHSCHILD.
2008 - Use my Ferrari, Mandy told by Rothschild on Klosters holiday http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1080660/Use-Ferrari-Mandy-told-Rothschild-Klosters-holiday.html quote : "Lord Mandelson was in Klosters with his former spin doctor Benjamin Wegg-Prosser, now an aide to another Moscow tycoon, and Wegg-Prosser's Russian wife Yulia." "It is believed Mr Rothschild joined them at his family's retreat in Klosters."
2008 - http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1281408/Mandelson-s-Alpine-drive-classic-Ferrari-Rothschild-heir-centre-500m-dinner-oligarch.html Quote : The former Business Secretary is pictured in the passenger seat of a black open-top Ferrari Daytona Spider, worth at least £250,000. At the wheel is his friend, 38-year-old banking heir Nat Rothschild, who was offering hospitality to the Labour peer at one of his chalets in Klosters, in the Swiss Alps. The picture is proof, if it were needed, that Lord Mandelson has a taste for the kind of high life that would otherwise be beyond his purse."
2008 - Tell truth about oligarch links, Mandelson told http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/tell-truth-about-oligarch-links-mandelson-told-974461.html Quote : "A Brussels pressure group has also accused Lord Mandelson of being too close to the Europe-wide lobby group BusinessEurope. The Corporate Europe Observatory has written to the Commission's president, Jose Manuel Barroso, claiming Lord Mandelson gave the group "privileged access" during his term as EU trade commissioner.

Thanks for the info! There is a reason why Mandelson is called 'Prince of Darkness', but somehow he always seems to fly under our radar (more or less).
And Islington was (is?) a hot spot for pedos - they had infiltrated all care homes there. It only came to light thanks to an amazing group of whistleblowers. IIRC, the PIE had their headquarter in Islington.

You're welcome, Yes, Relies on public's 'Goldfish' Memory, Yes, Yes. Yes, I'll do another Post.. PIE is too big to properly do in less than 200k words...I'll start compling, but may not get done today. PIE to NAMBLA.

Louis Montbatten : Prince Philip's uncle Lord Louis Mountbatten "was particularly attracted to boys in their early teens; it was this characteristic which made him especially vulnerable to the IRA , because he needed to slip away from his personal bodyguards to keep dates with such boys, some of whom came in contact with IRA men. His vice habit was similar to that of the former British Secret Service Chief , 'Sir' Maurice Oldfield , who was appointed ' Ulster (sic) Security Co-Ordinator ' by Margaret Thatcher in the wake of the Mountbatten assassination . In 1973, Maurice Oldfield became Director-General of MI6. He held the post under Edward Heath, Harold Wilson and James Callaghan before retiring in 1978. In 1979 the new prime minister, Margaret Thatcher, asked Oldfield to coordinate security and intelligence in Northern Ireland. He left this post in 1980 after his positive vetting clearance was withdrawn. Apparently this was because he admitted that "from time to time engaged in homosexual activities."
Edward Heath : UK Prime Minister Edward Heath , Prime Minister of England from 1970-74, was a frequent visitor to the Haute Garrene childrens care home in Jersey. He took boys from the care home away on his boat for weekends. The name 'Mr. Eddy' was well known on Hampstead Heath and at the boys home nearby in the seventies. At one point Sir Edward, who never married, was being investigated by five police forces over alleged child abuse - the Met, Wiltshire, Hampshire, Kent and Jersey.
Eddy's Government..(see if you recognise any names..)
Edward Heath – Prime Minister, First Lord of the Treasury and Minister for the Civil Service Lord Hailsham of St Marylebone – Lord Chancellor William Whitelaw – Lord President of the Council and Leader of the House of Commons Lord Jellicoe – Lord Privy Seal and Leader of the House of Lords Iain Macleod – Chancellor of the Exchequer Sir Alec Douglas-Home – Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs Reginald Maudling – Secretary of State for the Home Department James Prior – Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food Lord Carrington – Secretary of State for Defence Margaret Thatcher – Secretary of State for Education & Science Robert Carr – Secretary of State for Employment Peter Walker – Minister of Housing and Local Government Keith Joseph – Secretary of State for Health and Social Security Anthony Barber – Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster Gordon Campbell – Secretary of State for Scotland Geoffrey Rippon – Secretary of State for Technology Michael Noble – President of the Board of Trade Peter Thomas – Secretary of State for Wales and Chairman of the Conservative Party
Edward Heath was replaced by Harold Wilson due to mostly.. the backfire from the Profumo Scandal :
Stephan Ward and ¨Profumo"
Allegedly Stephen Ward was a member of 'The Thursday Club', later renamed the 'Monday Club' . Dr. Stephen Ward was reportedly the pimp for a ring of call-girls that operated out of Ward's cottage on the Clivedon estate of Lord Astor. Ward befriended Christeen Keeler. In 1963, Secretary of War John Profumo was compromised by his affair with Keeler. It seems that she had also been sleeping with a top Soviet KGB agent in London, Capt. Yevgeny Ivanov. "Steven ward was running a spy-ring investigating the whereabouts of 'the Hess files', thought to be kept in the home of one of the nobility (or even in the palace archives). Ward and prostitute Ronna Ricardo came upon a paedophile ring run by Anthony Blunt, and included ... a lot of top people incl polititians... Profumo survived because he had evidence and powerful friends, Ward was killed ... Peter Rachman was Mossad..." Ward attended private parties run by the likes of David, Marquis of Milford Haven and the cousin of Prince Phillip. These 'often developed into full-blown orgies lasting over an extended weekend, with participants as varied as the photographer Baron and American superstar, Bing Crosby.' Christine Keeler worked at Murray's cabaret club.There she befriended "Mandy" Rice-Davies. Both women 'become celebrated players in Ward's celebrity sexual circus centred on his Wimpole Mews flat, equipped with two-way mirrors, Lord Astor's country mansion of Cliveden or weekends at Spring Cottage, parties and other rather more dubious social events.' Dr Stephen Ward had an MI5 controller, Keith Wagstaffe (cover-name 'Woods').
Special Services and Perverts in control.
It is known that MI5 ran a brothel in Church Street in Kensington throughout much of the 1950's and early 1960's for the use of visiting dignitaries, diplomats and intelligence officers. While for those too important to visit such an establishment certain discreet gentlemen were called upon to provide young female or male company directly to the VIP hotel bedroom.

VIP peadophile ring in Buckingham Palace. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/vip-paedophile-ring-abused-teenage-4721479 "At Buckingham Palace, the 16-year-old boy was approached by Sir Peter Hayman, the deputy director of MI6, who was a pedophile. Hayman asked the boy to work for him in Canada, where he became ambassador.
Hayman was a member of the top paedophile ring operating within the UK government." https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2015/feb/02/thatcher-peter-hayman-named-paedophile-archives
https://www.exaronews.com/peter-hayman-and-john-henniker-linked-to-paedophile-scandal "The late Sir Peter Hayman, who rose to become a senior spy, and Lord Henniker, who died in 2004 and also had a background in intelligence, were two peas in a pod, although how far they shared interests remains unclear. What is known is that the Queen liked them both so much that she awarded each the CVO, an unusual honour in that it is granted by her personally Henniker provided a sanctuary on his country estate at Thornham Magna in Suffolk to Peter Righton, who supplied boys to paedophile VIPs at Dolphin Square and elsewhere.
