Alan Dershowitz, Jeffrey Epstein’s former lawyer, claims two courts in New York are withholding information on the notorious financier and convicted sex offender’s case, not the Trump administration.
His comments come as President Donald Trump and his Justice Department (DOJ) have faced criticism for how they handled the case’s materials. Dershowitz, who helped obtain Epstein a plea agreement in 2008, stated that there is no Epstein “client list,” only a redacted FBI affidavit from accusations.
During an interview on NewsNation with Chris Cuomo, the former lawyer said that none of the individuals in the document are now holding public office.
Dershowitz maintained that he is unable to divulge further material due to judicial orders but that Attorney General Pam Bondi and President Trump are “not responsible” for the missing information.
“Is the government hiding a client list or anything that the Trump Administration could release tonight?” Cuomo asked.

“No, there’s no client list and never has been a client list. A client list suggests that Jeffrey Epstein made a list of people to whom he trafficked women. What there is, is a redacted FBI affidavit from accusers. There are several of them from accusers that accuse Jeffrey — that accuse various people of having improper sex, and that has been redacted, the names of the people accuse have been blacked out,” Dershowitz began.
“Now, of course, because I was lawyer and I did all the investigations, I know who all these people are. I could figure out, based on everything that I saw, who Mr.X is, Mr. Y is, and Mr. Z. I can tell you right now: None of them are public figures who are currently in office. Some of them were previously in office. Some of them are dead. But there is no client list. And the redactions could be undone if you go to court,” Dershowitz added.
“So, many of the things that are being suppressed are being suppressed by two judges in Manhattan, and they’re doing it largely to protect the alleged accusers who are, in the view of the judges, victims, even though we don’t know what their actual status is. But the judges have issued orders, which is why I can’t disclose things I’d love to disclose, saying that you can’t disclose this information. But Pam Bondi and the Justice Department and Donald Trump are not responsible for that. I don’t know of any information that they could disclose that they haven’t disclosed,” he continued.
“Now maybe there is some, but I’m simply not aware of it. And so I think it’s important to place the blame where the blame deserves to be placed. The vast majority of people who are in the files — and I I know them all, I’ve seen all the names — the vast, vast majority of them have already been disclosed. They’re in articles all over the world. They’re in books that have been written,” Dershowtiz declared.
“So if we got everything, everything, you would be shocked how few names are there that haven’t already been disclosed. The media hasn’t, by the way, done a good enough job in finding the people who have been disclosed in the public record. So that’s that list,” he concluded.

Another former attorney for Epstein “unequivocally” said that President Trump is nowhere to be seen on the infamous list of clients that his former client had.
David Schoen, who represented Epstein in the final weeks before he died in 2019, revealed in June that he had questioned his imprisoned client about any potential dirt on Trump.
“I was hired to lead Jeffrey Epstein’s defense as his criminal lawyer 9 days before he died. He sought my advice for months before that. I can say authoritatively, unequivocally, and definitively that he had no information to hurt President Trump. I specifically asked him!” Schoen said in a post on X.
