The woman who accused attorney Alan Dershowitz of sexually abusing her is now saying she may have been mistaken. Her defamation lawsuit against Dershowitz is also being dropped.

“I have long believed that I was trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein to Alan Dershowitz. However, I was very young at the time, it was a very stressful and traumatic environment, and Mr. Dershowitz has from the beginning consistently denied these allegations,“ Virginia Giuffre, formerly Virginia Roberts, said in a joint statement that announced the settlement of the suit. “I now recognize I may have made a mistake in identifying Mr. Dershowitz.”
