DERSHOWITZ: “Let me be very clear, it’s not pointless. He just called me a pervert. He will be sued now for defamation — “
HIJAB: “Defamation is honest opinion. In the U.K. we have different definition than yours.”
DERSHOWITZ: “I guarantee you that he will be sued for calling me a pervert.”
HIJAB: “And my understanding, you are a pervert because you were acquainted with Jeffrey Epstein.”
DERSHOWITZ: “The woman who falsely accused me has now withdrawn her accusation — “
HIJAB: “Sure. I’ve got my own defamation cases. I know the law very well here. You can’t threaten me.”
DERSHOWITZ: “ — and acknowledged that she may have confused me with somebody else.”
HIJAB: “You can’t threaten me. I know the law very well. I consider you to be a pervert because of your connection with Jeffrey Epstein.”
DERSHOWITZ: “And calling me a pervert will result in a defamation lawsuit — “
HIJAB: “Sure. I’m ready for it.”
DERSHOWITZ: “ — in an American court and in a British court.”
