1 / 3Trump Impeachment DershowitzFILE - In this Dec. 2, 2019, file photo, attorney Alan Dershowitz talks to the press outside federal court, in New York. Retired law professor Alan Dershowitz says he hasn't changed at all and has a long history of representing people whose views he doesn't necessarily agree with. Dershowitz is part of President Donald Trump's defense team at the Senate impeachment trial.

In the lead-up to Trump’s impeachment trial, both attorneys have faced some of the toughest scrutiny of their careers for their connections to Epstein. Story continues“He said he’s fully aware of it, and it shouldn’t be a factor,” Dershowitz said. “He said it was not an issue for him.” Starr did not respond to requests for comment. In the past, he has vigorously defended the plea agreement that he and others on Epstein’s legal team negotiated.

Fresh media scrutiny of the case led to the resignation of Trump’s labor secretary, Alex Acosta, who was the U.S. attorney in South Florida when Epstein’s 2008 plea deal was negotiated.
