Dershowitz certainly does not leave any room for interpretation. He adamantly denies ever meeting the accuser and doesn't deviate from that stance one iota.  This commentary is pointless. If intends on lying and getting away with it why would he ever deviate from his stance?  Any deviation would only hurt his case, which he understands very well as an attorney.  And if he's telling the truth he has nothing to deviate from. So, lack of deviation is evidence of nothing. He's nervous, as you say.  He's looking at the paper in his lap mid-interview.  If he's not involved and there is no evidence against him, is there any urgency in going on TV to claim innocence?.  There's not even any charges layed.  He's so hurried he doesn't even bother to check public perception of Clinton re: Epstein, but just parrots the release from Clinton's office.    Either he's telling the truth and has nothing to worry about or he just went ALL IN with a nationally televised lie ASAP to get ahead of the speculation and to dissuade potential investigators from taking the claims seriously.  Which does his behavior indicate? Squirming.
