In a new statement, Giuffre said: "I now recognise I may have made a mistake in identifying Mr Dershowitz. "I have long believed that I was trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein to Alan Dershowitz. "However, I was very young at the time, it was a very stressful and traumatic environment, and Mr Dershowitz had from the beginning consistently denied these allegations." Dershowitz and Giuffre brought defamation lawsuits against each other as the Harvard law professor denied all claims of alleged sexual misconduct. Both sides have now dropped the suits, agreed not to sue again and waived their rights to appeal. Alan Dershowitz praised Giuffre for speaking out about sex trafficking ( Getty Images) Dershowitz told the Independent: "I commend her for finally coming forward and acknowledging that she may have made a mistake in identifying me because of the trauma that she went through." "She has suffered much at the hands of Jeffrey Epstein and I commend her work combating the evil of sex trafficking," Dershowitz added. A suit was also brought against Giuffre's lawyer David Boies. He said: 'I know that Alan Dershowitz has suffered greatly from the allegation of sexual abuse made against him — an allegation that he has consistently and vehemently denied. "I also know this litigation has imposed, and continues to impose, a significant burden on Ms Giuffre.' Giuffre, now 38, was a victim of the sex trafficking ring of convicted billionaire paedophile Epstein, aided by socialite Ghislaine Maxell.
