Alan Dershowitz, who helped Epstein get a sweetheart plea deal, is named in the filings more than 130 times.

On Wednesday, a 946-page trove of court documents from that 2015 case – filed by Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre – were unsealed, with details including how Epstein emailed Maxwell to insist that Stephen Hawking did not participate in an underage orgy on his Caribbean Island in 2006.
Hawking, the celebrated wheelchair-bound physicist who died in March 2018 aged 76, was among the guests at a barbecue during a conference on the island sponsored by Epstein.
Another of the documents, arguing that Maxwell should be forced to sit for further testimony, reveals that Maxwell under oath said she ‘did not recall’ being in London with Virginia Giuffre and Prince Andrew – despite photographs showing the three together.
