I was watching an interview with Alan Dershowitz, and it got me thinking about some of his career choices. If you were in his shoes, which, if any, of his past clients would you have worked with? Epstein, O.J. Simpson, Weinstein, or Bülow?

I would pick none of the above but if I had to pick one I would say Jeffrey Epstein, then lose my license and leak everything I learned from the man

None, but if I had to pick, OJ hands down. Epstein and Weinstein too evil, and at least OJ’s black.
