Contrary to popular conjecture, late sex predator Jeffrey Epstein had solid dirt on “only one person” and strenuously denied any connection to Mossad or the CIA, his former lawyer Alan Dershowitz told “Pod Force One.”

Dershowitz, 87, who was part of the legal team that helped the late financer win a controversial non-prosecution deal with the Justice Department in a 2006 case, argued that there’s a plethora of unproven claims out there on his former client that are widely accepted as fact.

“Jeffrey Epstein, obviously, I regret defending,” Dershowitz told The Post’s Miranda Devine when asked about clients he regrets. “I wish I had never met him. He was a terrible, terrible evil man, but even in that case, many of his crimes are exaggerated.”

“The vast majority of women who claim to be victims either came back over and over again to get the $250 to give them a massage or themselves became recruiters of other people, or never met Epstein and just made it up,” the famed lawyer added. “There are real victims, too.”

One of the popular conspiracy theories about Epstein is that he was running a sex-related blackmail operation backed by some sort of intelligence apparatus, such as the CIA or Mossad.

Dershowitz poured cold water on that theory.

“I know for a categorical fact that isn’t the case,” he said about allegations that Epstein had ties to intelligence. “I asked him specifically. I said, ‘If you had any connection to any intelligence agencies, I can get you a better deal.’”

“And he said, ‘Alan, I had no connection. What intelligence agency would ever hire me or rely on me?’”

Dershowitz claimed he “confirmed that with the Mossad” and noted he doesn’t believe “there’s any truth to any CIA connection” either.

Fueling the theory, in part, was a 2018 Daily Beast article that cited an anonymous source asserting that former US Attorney Alexander Acosta, who cut the controversial 2008 plea deal, claimed he was told to back off since Epstein “belonged to intelligence.”

Dershowitz also concluded that Epstein likely committed suicide in his prison cell because “he was a hedonist” and downplayed the notion that he was running a massive blackmail scheme.

“I don’t think he was blackmailing people, though I think he was interested in collecting information about people, and maybe he would have used it to defend himself, but I don’t think he ever affirmatively blackmailed people,” Dershowitz said.
