Dershowitz signals no revelations coming in Epstein grand jury records – Washington Examiner
Alan Dershowitz indicated that the grand jury transcripts related to Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, which the Trump management has requested to be unsealed, are unlikely to contain new revelations.President Trump ordered Attorney General Pam Bondi to release all pertinent grand jury testimony after the FBI and DOJ closed their investigation without finding an epstein client list and confirmed his suicide. While the Department of Justice sought to unseal these transcripts with necessary redactions, Dershowitz stated that the most significant data remains in sealed court records, not in the grand jury files. He emphasized that grand jury material is limited to evidence supporting indictments and called for the release of additional revelation documents, such as depositions from Maxwell’s case, which could provide more significant details. Dershowitz also suggested granting Ghislaine Maxwell immunity to testify before Congress, as she allegedly has crucial knowledge about Epstein’s activities.
Dershowitz signals no revelations coming in Epstein grand jury records
Alan Dershowitz signaled on Sunday that any new information related to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein and his accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell, will not be found in the grand jury transcripts from their prosecutions that the Trump administration requested be unsealed.
Late last week, President Donald Trump ordered Attorney General Pam Bondi to “produce any and all pertinent Grand Jury testimony” related to Epstein, citing the renewed attention given to the convicted sex offender after the FBI and DOJ concluded their investigation, finding no Epstein “client list” and that he committed suicide in his Manhattan jail cell. The Department of Justice moved to request the unsealing of grand jury transcripts on Friday, asking federal judges in New York to release them with the “appropriate redactions of victim-related and other personal identifying information.”
Despite the movement from the Trump administration to put an end to the Epstein files that has now angered both its MAGA supporters and Democrats, Dershowitz said while the grand jury transcripts “should” be released, no revelations are in those files but are instead in “sealed records by two or three federal judges in the New York courts.”
“The information that hasn’t been requested is going to be far more informative and far more relevant than the grand jury information,” Dershowitz said on Fox News Sunday with Shannon Bream. “Grand jury information is narrowly tailored by prosecutors only to provide sufficient evidence to result in an indictment.”
The former Epstein lawyer and Harvard law professor then called for the release of “discovery information,” including depositions in Maxwell’s case, which he said is “much more important” and could lead to new details.

In terms of Maxwell, who is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence after being convicted of child sex trafficking for Epstein, Dershowitz called for her to be granted immunity to testify in front of a congressional committee, saying she “knows everything.”
“She is the Rosetta Stone. She knows everything. She arranged every single trip with everybody. She knows everything. And if she were just given use immunity, she could be compelled to testify. I’m told that she actually would be willing to testify. And there’d be no reason for her to withhold any information,” Dershowitz said.
