Police investigating Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor to fly to US to speak to Virginia Giuffre's family
Source: The Independent UK
UK detectives are set to fly to the US to speak to family members of Virginia Giuffre as part of their investigation into alleged misconduct by Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.
Thames Valley Police (TVP) want to talk to relatives of Giuffre, who died by suicide aged 41 in April last year, about her allegations of sexual assault against the former prince, The Independent understands. Giuffre claims she was sexually assaulted by Mr Mountbatten-Windsor three times when she was under the age of 18 after she was trafficked by paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
Detectives are planning to visit Giuffres brother and sister-in-law, Sky and Amanda Roberts, in the coming weeks, it is understood. The pair have been outspoken in their support for Giuffre and the police investigation since her death, and issued a statement following Mr Mountbatten-Windsors arrest in February, saying that our broken hearts have been lifted at the news that no one is above the law, not even royalty.

(23,143 posts)I'm also not holding out much hope. Everything else aside, the more time that elapses, the less likely it is that he'd be found competent to stand trial. Even now, he doesn't seem to know where he is or why he's there a lot of the time, and it's will only going to get worse, because that's the nature of dementia.
With any luck, he'll be dead soon. At least I hope so. As long as dead = unable to shoot off his big mouth or post any more disgusting crap to Lies Social, I can live with that.

They're hoping his demise will be their ticket to break free.....a war if attrition of sorts
Nope
In fact the pedo protectors should be charged to the fullest extent of the law along with the perps at this point.

(23,143 posts)He's not yet been charged with anything (the key words being "not yet" ). Back in February, he was arrested "on suspicion of misconduct in public office," held for about 11 hours, and then released.
Police are obviously continuing to investigate, and it sounds like they're being thorough, which is a very good thing, imo. They probably want to be sure they have a fairly ironclad case before charging such a prominent person, and I don't blame them.
