Trap Guy....."Alan Dershowitz, defender of OJ Simpson, and zealot of all liberal causes, I'm surprised you would reference him".... ....."Throughout his career, Professor Dershowitz has been willing to defend high-profile clients involved in seemingly unwinnable cases. Some of his well-known clients have included kidnap victim-turned terrorist Patty Hearst, junk bond king Michael Milken, televangelist Jimmy Bakker, and heavy-weight boxing champion Mike Tyson. And, of course, Professor Dershowitz was also a member of the O.J. Simpson "Dream Team" defense."....

Concerned that Dershowitz's thesis may negatively impact Simpson's case, Shapiro decided to hire Dershowitz, in part to "shut him up." Rarely present in court, Dershowitz spent most of his time handling motions and other support documents. His main assignment was to prepare for possible appellate review of an adverse trial outcome.
