Two completely different cases, but you’re right. Dershowitz has a brilliant legal mind.

The Dersh is a publicity hound. I remember a clip of him during the OJ murder farce: On a tread mill with a beeper just in case the needed him. Like he didn't have a cellphone/cordless/grunt to get him.

He must be up in years by now. A Boston radio guy whose wife engaged Dershowitz to sue Imus (successfully), was wondering earlier in the year about Dershowitz publicly speaking out conservatively on some issues, saying "he didn't need the grief" from the pc crowd at this point (semi-retired) in his life.

Dershowitz is back to his old publicity games defending Polanski.

Probably channeling F. Lee Bailey, imho.
