  1. >Prince Andrew is expected to be among dozens of Jeffrey Epstein’s associates named in documents to be unsealed next month on the orders of a New York judge.
    >
    >The documents were filed as part of a lawsuit against the disgraced financier’s former girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell.
    >
    >Judge Loretta Preska has given those whose names will be released 14 days to appeal against her decision before the documents are made public.
    >
    >In a 50-page order, Preska reviewed the cases of 187 people referred to only as “J Doe”. They include friends of Epstein, associates, alleged victims, journalists, police and prosecutors. She said many had already been named in the press, or in Maxwell’s criminal trial, or have given interviews.
    >
    >The names of ten people would remain sealed under her order, including alleged victims of Epstein or people with no connection to the case.
    >
    >Some of the documents to be unsealed appeared to relate to Johanna Sjoberg, who has said she was a college student when Maxwell recruited her to give sexualised massages to Epstein. Lawyers for the Epstein accuser, Virginia Giuffre, used her testimony in a defamation lawsuit filed against Maxwell in 2015 and settled in 2017, and in a sex abuse lawsuit against Prince Andrew that was also settled out of court.
    >
    >Giuffre also used Sjoberg’s testimony in a lawsuit filed against Andrew, in which she claimed that he sexually abused her when she was 17 years old.
    >
    >The Duke of York paid millions to settle out of court despite claiming he had never met Giuffre, whom Epstein trafficked.
    >
    >The prince’s friendship with Epstein has led him to be cast out of the working monarchy and to step down from public life. In January 2022, Queen Elizabeth stripped him of his honorary military roles.
    >
    >Sjoberg, in a deposition, recalled meeting Andrew in Epstein’s townhouse and posing for a photograph with him and Giuffre and a Spitting Image puppet of the Prince. “I sat on Andrew’s lap, and I believe on my own volition, and they took the puppet’s hands and put it on Virginia’s breast, and so Andrew put his on mine,” she said, according to court documents.
    >
    >Filings from the 2015 defamation case were initially kept secret but in 2019, an appeals court released hundreds of documents, finding that they had been improperly sealed. By then Epstein had been arrested and charged with trafficking dozens of minors, and was awaiting trial in a Manhattan jail. The day after the documents were released, he was found dead in his cell.
    >
    >A deposition Maxwell gave in the case also became part of the criminal case prosecutors brought against her in 2020. She was convicted in 2021 and was sentenced to 20 years in prison in June 2022.
    >
    >In the meantime, Preska is deciding what documents from the 2015 defamation case should also be unsealed. In her filing on the documents relating to unnamed associates and alleged victims of Epstein, she writes that in many cases, the sealed material is “benign” or “not salacious”. In some cases, she found that the individual had not voiced an objection, or identified a specific reason for keeping the material sealed.
    >
    >She asked that after 14 days, pending any appeals, lawyers involved in the case prepare the documents for release.

  2. His brother’s got an Amy, Navy and Airforce, nothing going to happen to him.

  3. Unrelated but anyone heard what Harry has been upto? I got the feeling something’s coming.

  4. Stop focusing on one person. You have a long list of celebrities, millionaires, politicians and bankers all involved with this guy and his island and not a single one has been questioned. It’s a joke

  5. Wonder if he still has that ‘cant sweating’ problem. In any case, the full list is what should be focussed on and not just a single pedo.

  6. And nothing will happen because it never does when it concerns the royal family. Just like last time

  7. Prince Andrew is a fall guy, what about all the other noncey fucked up high profile people?

  8. I think the biggest name should be Trump.

    Epstein was his “friend” and Trump has commented on this a few times as well as many photos of the two together.

    Also Epstein died when Trump was president…

  9. There is going to be a lot of sweating going on very soon. Unless they are all lizard people of course.
