Police search former Prince Andrew's home a day after his arrest

Police searched the former home of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor again on Friday, a day after he was arrested and held in custody for nearly 11 hours on suspicion of misconduct in public office related to his friendship with the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Following one of the most tumultuous days in the modern history of Britain’s royal family, the former Prince Andrew is back at his new residence on the Sandringham estate, King Charles III ‘s private retreat, which is around 115 miles (185 kilometers) north of London.

Police have concluded their search at Wood Farm, where Mountbatten-Windsor is living while waiting for his new home nearby, Marsh Farm, to be ready.

They are still searching Royal Lodge, his 30-room former home in the parkland near Windsor Castle, just west of the capital, where the king’s younger brother had lived for decades until his eviction earlier this month. Unmarked vans, believed to be police vehicles, have been entering the grounds throughout Friday morning.

Be interesting to know what, if anything, they find.

removing him from the royal line of succession as we speak. That might mean kicking him off the property also. He could be given a "grace and favor" cottage but I think the British people would rebel at even that. Exile would be too good for him as nobody would want him.

The BBC correspondent was asked if the monarchy was considering knocking Andrew out of the line of succession.The correspondent didn't know yet, but said Andrew is (IIRC) 8th in line.
