Prince Andrew has 'completely shut the door' on cooperating in the investigation of Jeffrey Epstein's network of enablers, US attorney says.
"Of course, I am willing to help any appropriate law enforcement agency with their investigations, if required," Andrew said in a statement."This issue is being dealt with by The Duke of York’s legal team," a spokesperson said."Buckingham Palace will not be commenting further on this particular matter."
It's unusual for a federal prosecutor to comment on whether a particular person is cooperating in an investigation, but earlier this year Berman said that he decided to do so in part because of Andrew's public statement expressing a willingness to assist in the investigation. "He publicly offered, indeed in a press release, offered to cooperate with law enforcement investigating the crimes committed by Jeffrey Epstein and his co-conspirators," Berman said at a news conference in late January, adding that Andrew had yet provided"zero cooperation."In an interview with"Dateline" last year, Giuffre said the she was abused by Andrew in London, New York and on Epstein's private island in the Caribbean.
"I just couldn't believe it," she said."I couldn't believe that even royalty were involved" in Epstein's alleged network."He was a prince. He was famous. He's royalty. And it just stuck out in my mind," she said."I grew up watching Disney just like most little girls grow up watching Disney, and princesses and princes were the good people in the world, and he wasn't.
