Pedo document release - Prince Andrew could be in big trouble this time
2024-01-05
A few — just a few! — examples of royal fiddling with underage commoners years and years ago and the man’s life is ruined. This is as bad as the nonsense that drove his mother to force him to divorce that vivacious redheaded wife of his back when their daughters were young. Honestly, back in the day a royal prince had to actually marry a divorcée to get the cut direct — anything less was just aristos being aristos.
[MAIL] Andrew will never return to the royal fold after the release of documents detailing sexual assault allegations, insiders said last night.

Papers released by a New York court in the early hours of yesterday thrust the Duke of York's relationship with paedophile Jeffrey Epstein back into the spotlight with claims that the prince committed 'acts of sexual abuse' and took part in an 'underage orgy'.

Andrew has vehemently and repeatedly denied all allegations against him. Yesterday well-placed sources told the Mail that while the court claims were not a surprise, they will have served to 'crystallise' King Charles's determination to solve the 'Andrew problem' decisively.

Plans were already in train to evict him from Royal Lodge, his ten-bedroom Windsor home since 2003, and move him to a smaller residence in keeping with his 'downgraded' status.

The newly released court documents are believed to have strengthened the King's resolve that Andrew will never be allowed to resume royal duties.

#10  I agree. I really liked Harry, until got married. He served in actual combat, until some idiot reporter outed him. Then he became an attack helicopter pilot. Yes, he had some escapades, but who wouldn't, if he were young rich and good looking?

#8  IMO the brits would do well to evict the current king and successor and make Harry the potentate-in-charge. I like Harry. 2 tours in SEA.

#7  The "unexplained Epstein income" remains...unexplained. My hunch is it was USG/UK gov't money. Some sort of bilateral source recruitment project (cough, cough Maxwell) that permitted selective sampling of the bait.

When all else fails follow the money and nookie.

#6  Charles will abdicate within the next 5 years as they try to rebrand this mess. The idea will be to drop the focus to the next generation. Megan is cast in the inconvenient Kamala Harris role of the saga.
As for legal trouble, let’s be realistic. The FBI has all the videos for years and has done diddly squat. The scandal will continue to stink like Pepe LePew’s carcass after an encounter with a Goodyear radial, but Andrew is not going to jail. He won’t be getting many party invites though.

#4  Mum's passed. Avoid taking fishing trips Andy (or enter multi-story buildings in Moscow).

#3  Why do I feel Charles is trying to keep the light off of himself?

#2  They'd like to have Andrew abdicate, but he's been put in charge of Princess Meggie's public outreach campaign.

#1   "they will have served to 'crystallise' King Charles's determination to solve the 'Andrew problem' decisively."

This sounds like a quote from a Mafia movie...
