The agreement was reached between Virginia Giuffre and Jeffrey Epstein, who killed himself in 2019 while awaiting a sex trafficking trial in New York City.

The attorney Andrew Brettler has argued that the deal also shields Andrew from a separate claim brought against the prince by Giuffre this year.

Preska said the court questioned “whether any proper purpose would be served by the continued secrecy of the document save, perhaps, the dollar amount the settlement provided it for”.

In the August lawsuit, Virginia Giuffre claims that the prince abused her on multiple occasions in 2001. Andrew has said he never had sex with her and has repeatedly denied all allegations of abuse.

Anybody involved with this filth should be outed.

3. Entitlement

These royalists have purchased and murdered their way out of public mayhem and destroying other people's lives since time immemorial so what's new? Andrew was swimming in the same pond scum as Epstein. Zero moral fiber in Epstein's cabal, just look at the cast of players.
