In the affidavit, Roberts claimed that Epstein and Maxwell directed her to have sex with Andrew and Dershowitz and others. She had sex with Andrew three times, she alleged once in London, when she was 17, again in New York, when she was 17, and a third time, as part of an orgy on Epsteins island, when she was 18. By law, at 17, she would have been above the age of consent in New York and England, but not in Florida, where the age of consent is 18.
As part of the affidavit, Roberts furnished a photograph of her with the prince and Maxwell, which she said was taken in London.
Dershowitz, who was part of Epsteins criminal defense team, was often a guest at Epsteins homes, she said.
I had sexual intercourse with Dershowitz at least six times, Roberts wrote in the 2015 court affidavit. The first time was when I was about 16, early on in my servitude to Epstein and it continued until I was 19. She detailed some of those trysts, which she said happened at Epsteins homes in Palm Beach, New Mexico and on Epsteins island.
One of Epsteins housemen, Juan Alessi, testified in a 2009 sworn deposition that Dershowitz visited Epsteins Palm Beach home four or five times a year. He said that Roberts was a frequent visitor as well, but he never placed Dershowitz and Roberts at the house at the same time.

Yep, they will use the old standby, "Why didn't the girls say something years ago?"

Trump voters of today would have blown up those little black girls at that church years ago.

Set aside the agreement not to prosecute as an illegal plea bargain and go after the bastards.

Umm, with all due respect, I think we are talking about two different scenarios.

He wasn't accused of "sleeping" with her. He was accused of a violent RAPE of a 13 yr. old.
