Prince Andrew, Duke of York, named in underage 'sex slave' lawsuit

[quiquaquo]

Disgusted to to see that fat cunt Tony Fernandes (QPR and Air Asia owner) grovelling to Andrew on TV news tonight.

 

[DexterTCN]

When is says papers filed in court, what have they actually filed for? Criminal charges or are they suing him?

Nah...it's a challenge that he doesn't have to respond to. Answer her lawyers questions under oath, he would probably get to see them (the questions) before-hand.

 

[TopCat]

Who really believes this cunt did not do all he is accused of and more? Fucking rapist.

 

[brogdale]

The mail have done one of those front page juxtaposition things that they do...

It was like finding out Liberace was gay.

 

[Citizen66]

Innocent until proven guilty is bollocks in this case because it's unlikely to ever see a day in court. Can't help but see some similarities between this and Assange although Prince Andrew won't have to literally hide in an embassy.

Now it looks like Bill Clinton is in the frame with this pair of shites:

Sadly the more bigwigs that get dragged into this the less likely it is that any of them will be brough to book for any of it.

clinton or nixon, who goes down as the biggest liar to get caught

The thought of B.Clinton "going down" is not one I wish to dwell on.

 

[SpookyFrank]

He has been 'invited' to answer some questions under oath.

No doubt Roberts' lawyers know full well that Andrew is not going to do anything of the sort, it's all just part of mummery. At some point they'll be able to stand in front of a judge and say 'we asked him to answer these questions under oath but he declined' as part of some broader argument, and probably that's all they hope to get out of it.

 

[Citizen66]

Probably. Although Epstein having been convicted and Clinton - being caught having extra-curricular activities in the White House with Monica Lewinsky previously - being involved can only add weight to the accusations.

 

[kabbes]

Made me so angry the way this was reported on R4 this morning. They were reporting it as if he had definitely done nothing and the whole issue was nothing but an image problem. There was a parade of fuckers from Davos saying things like, "Yah, Andrew just needs to improve his image" leading me to shout "and, just maybe, stop fucking under aged girls!" at the radio. Shitbags, the lot of them.

 

[Wolveryeti]

All these high profile male public figures standing behind Handy Andy need to be added to the operation Yewtree to-do list pronto.

I'm still not sure if this is a civil case or a criminal case?

One of the people interviewed also basically described him as dull, thick and loyal...a thoroughly decent chap.

More likely they just mean he should stop getting caught fucking underage girls

 

[Diamond]

I'm still not sure if this is a civil case or a criminal case?

It's a bit betwixt and between as far as I understand.

The instant case is largely procedural, in that it's an application for disclosure regarding a plea bargain that Epstein struck with the prosecutors, which arguably infringed statutory rights. So the underlying matter is a criminal prosecution but this proceeding goes towards the details of that settlement deal, which would appear to be a civil issue.

 

[Citizen66]

Surely in the US one generally follows the other with these sort of matters? Unless the civil case is hush money.

 

[SpookyFrank]

I'm guessing 'hush money' is out of the question given that so much has already been made public. If you want hush money, you settle out of court.

Actually, I'm not so sure about that now.

I think the claimants are seeking both disclosure and damages from the US government, which falls pretty squarely in the civil box.

Not just male this time. This Maxwell woman seems like a piece of work.

Jesus Christ the lives these people lead:

"In 2002, as New York has reported, Clinton recruited Epstein to make his plane available for a week-long anti-poverty and anti-AIDS tour of Africa with Kevin Spacey, Chris Tucker, billionaire creep Ron Burkle, Clinton confidant Gayle Smith (who now serves on Barack Obama's National Security Council), and others. The logs from that trip show that Maxwell, Kellen, and a woman named Chauntae Davis joined the entourage for five days."

Now that's what I call a vacation! A week-long, airborne, trans-African campaign to eradicate both AIDS and poverty by flying orgy, spearheaded by the dregs of Hollywood, a planeload of hookers and the most notorious philanderer in the Western world.

Wtf do they take us for?

 

[killer b]

you can't really call Spacey the dregs of hollywood tbf. He's one of the finest and most successful actors of his generation.
