3. I'm sure he gets retirement and though Harvard may be different, it usually is just honorary.

6. Dershowitz Has Been Showing Us Who He Really is For Quite Some Time Now

We should believe him. It's always disappointing when a highly educated man is still an extreme misogynist and has a long history of severely abusing women. One would think he would have learned enough to be better than that. It's glaringly obvious, he didn't and his ignorance is toxic, not only to him but to anyone around him. A poisoned mind is a terrible thing.

A clip from the report...

"According to one of the new anonymous sources, who was an associate at Harvard
University, and who lived almost next door to Dershowitz on Robinson Court in
Cambridge, MA, he also alleges that Alan Dershowitz beat up his wife, which
landed her in the hospital for treatment. Dershowitz also allegedly stripped
Sue Barlach of custody of their two young sons, and divorced her. The tragic
story of her subsequent suicide by jumping off a New York bridge is also
alleged to be true by this and another anonymous source. The anonymous
sources also allege that Dershowitz used his litigious skills and prestige to
threaten and discourage CNN, which was then owned by Ted Turner, from
broadcasting the unsavory news of either events. Thus Dershowitz' attempted
cover-up of the big skeleton in his closet has largely been successful - until
now."

Hopefully it will be his downfall. They honestly think they are too brilliant, rich, clever, charismatic, etc. to get caught and taken down Sooner or later their arrogance will do them in.

I'd love everyone to be talking about this. Used to be able to keep something quiet, but not now, no sir, not now
