Lawyers for victims of Jeffrey Epstein are, reportedly, demanding to know the details of Prince Andrew and the criminal sex offender's conversations in new court documents. However, a friend of the Duke of York finds the move cynical, as the United States law firms may only want to continuously drag the royal's name to keep the case in the public eye.
In court papers, the victims want to know the details of "all texts or emails" and "calls in and calls out" between the disgraced financier and the troubled prince. They want to see the "telephone data information" and "text or email usage" between the two guys.
It will cover the time when Prince Andrew allegedly slept with one of Jeffrey Epstein's so-called "sex slave," Virginia Giuffre, which the initial repeatedly denied. However, a pal fears that this information, if revealed, could incriminate the 60-year-old royal.
"[It is a] cynical attempt by US law firms to keep their case in the public eye," Prince Andrew's friend said, per Mirror Online. Jeffrey Epstein, who took his life while waiting for trial, reportedly, visited Windsor Castle and Sandringham to attend different parties since 2000.
In addition, the court documents also want to know if Prince Andrew took part in any "sexual act" while at any of Jeffrey Epstein's properties. These demands were said to be made on behalf of an alleged victim who was only named "Priscilla Doe."
She claimed that Jeffrey Epstein forced her to perform sexual acts to his rich friends after he offered her to advance her dancing career. As of this writing, Prince Andrew has yet to comment on the new demand.
It is quite evident that some of the lawyers who are representing Jeffrey Epstein's victims are pursuing Prince Andrew. The Sun noted that in January, Reuters reported that these legal representatives could either bring their demands to a British high court to let an examiner take a state statement from Sarah Ferguson's former husband or find other ways to know his evidence. So far, what they are only doing is making public demands and threatening him of a subpoena if ever he sets foot in the United States.
Prince Andrew reportedly felt pressured earlier this year after U.S. authorities claimed that he failed to cooperate with the FBI's investigation regarding his ties with Jeffrey Epstein. Hence, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie's father might be reluctant to visit the foreign country, where his "evidence is sought on both criminal and civil cases." However, his lawyers claimed that his travel to other countries is "unlikely restricted."
