Jeffrey Epstein court documents updates — New Prince Andrew bombshell revealed in unsealed files
A SECOND batch of Jeffrey Epstein documents have been unsealed and revealed a new Prince Andrew bombshell.
Andrew is named in a list of potential witnesses filed by Virginia Giuffre, one of Epstein’s victims and his accuser.
Ms Giuffre’s counsel submitted the list – Exhibit 13, page 6 – as part of her defamation suit against Ghislaine Maxwell.
The listing for Andrew claims he “has knowledge of Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein’s trafficking conduct” – and had “interaction with underage minors, including Virginia Giuffre.”
Andrew has repeatedly denied all allegations of wrongdoing.
Nearly five years after Epstein killed himself in jail, a federal judge in New York ordered that the papers be unsealed and The Sun has seen the files.
