Still, a word about Andrew and Epstein again

I remain under the spell of Prince Andrew and Jeffrey Epstein. Because okay, he hasn't been officially convicted yet, but that it's not fluff, I dare bet all my quarters on that.

Just a little timeline.

1999
The two met through a ‘mutual friend’. Indeed, Ghislaine-karma-is-a-crank-Maxwell. Andrew immediately visits Epstein's island (that it is also a Virgin Island...) ‘several times’. I don't know about your fresh friendships, but I don't usually visit them immediately several times abroad. Then again, I'm no prince.

2000

Andrew invites his fresh friends Maxwell and Epstein to Windsor Castle. In the years that follow, the two see each other several times a year.

2006
Andrew invites Epstein to his daughter Beatrice's 18th birthday. Talk about bringing the devil into the house. Epstein had been accused of sexual abuse with minors several times between 2002 and 2005, but Andrew says he knew nothing about it and therefore continued the friendship.

2010

When Epstein got out of his 12-month ‘prison’ (he was in a private wing and was allowed in and out of the prison six days a week, had his own TV room and got his own food), Andrew flew to New York to cancel his friendship with Epstein. Because then he could no longer deny that there was some blood on Epstein's hands after all.

Meanwhile, Andrew was seen again at the 77 million mansion where the underage girls were going in and out.

2011
Sarah Ferguson reveals that she received $30,000 from Epstein to pay off debts. Now I find it pretty serious anyway that the mother of the grandchildren of one of the richest women on earth (Queen Elizabeth) has to go through life in debt, but that aside. But that Andrew accepted money from Epstein to channel it into her via Sarah's assistant I find pretty disgusting. Firstly, surely Andrew can give it to her himself? Surely this makes him intensely dependent and blackmailable? And what I further don't understand is that Sarah was disgusted by this gift because she wanted nothing to do with the paedophile Epstein, yet later continues to support Andrew in his innocence.

2015
Andrew is being heard in the Epstein case. Besides Virgina Roberts-Giuffre, by the way, there is another girl who filed charges against him: Johanna Sjoberg. You know the rest of the story and it will be continued.
