312 THE WITNESS: Well -- well, who -- I'm sorry. Who was that? The speaker? I want to know who is on the line here. Could somebody identify themselves, please? If somebody is eavesdropping in my deposition, I would like to know who it is. MR. SIMPSON: No one has the call-in number other than counsel and parties. THE WITNESS: So -- MR. SIMPSON: To my knowledge. MR. SCAROLA: Yeah, but that -- THE WITNESS: But who is that person? MR. SCAROLA: -- that doesn't preclude someone from sharing that call-in number. And it is appropriate that anybody on the line identify themselves. And if the people on the line refuse to identify themselves, then it's our intention to cut off the line, and the people who are authorized to be on the line can call back in. MR. SCOTT: I agree with that. MR. SIMPSON: Could -- could the people on the line identify themselves? MR. SCAROLA: Okay -- MR, DERSHOWITZ: Alan Dershowitz. ESQUIRE DEPOSITION SOLUTIONS (954) 331-4400
MR. SCAROLA: --~ cut it off.
MS. McCAWLEY: He just -- he just --
THE WITNESS: So he --
MR. SIMPSON: Alan Dershowitz. Anyone else?
MR. SCAROLA: So the only person on the line is Alan Dershowitz, and it was Mr. Dershowitz who
made the comment "move on"; is that correct? MR. SIMPSON: Well, he's the only one on the
line. I know -- I've only got three minutes left
here.
MR. SCAROLA: Well, I'l give you three more minutes. I want to know: Was it Mr. Dershowitz who made that comment "move on" because if it wasn't, there's somebody else on the fine --
MR. WEINBERG: I --I--
MR. SCAROLA: -- that refuses to identify themselves.
MR, WEINBERG: Marty Weinberg for Epstein. I've been on the line on occasion. I have a mute button and have said nothing and just kept on going with no statements on my end.
MR. DERSHOWITZ: It was me who said it. I-- I -- I thought my mute button was on.
THE COURT REPORTER: I can't hear. I can’t hear.

Q. -- have you told anyone that Professor Dershowitz abused Virginia Roberts or any other minor?
A. No. I've -- what I have tried to say is that I'm representing a young woman who has made those allegations. As an attorney, I'm proud to represent her, proud to present her case in court, proud to present arguments to whoever will listen that she's been sexually abused by various people.
Q. Okay. And you have spoken with representatives of the News Media on the record and off the record about this case; isn't that -- is that not correct?
A. Well, on the record, yes; with regard to off the record, there have been some communications that I think now have been turned over to the -- to the defense. So I don't -- I'm not sure if there still remain any off the record -- I suppose probably there are a few, but I would -- I think most of the -- what were originally off-the-record communications have now been provided to -- to the defense time.
Q. Mr. Cassell, is it not true -- true, that you have spoken with reporters on what you referred to as quote, background, close quote?
A. Yeah. I mean that's different than -- your ‘earlier question was off the record and on the record.
