In Their Own Words: Virginia Roberts And The Prince Andrew Allegations (8/8/25)

The Epstein Chronicles - A podcast by Bobby Capucci - Fridays

The civil complaint filed by Virginia Roberts Giuffre against Prince Andrew in 2021 alleged that he sexually abused her on multiple occasions when she was 17 years old, a victim of Jeffrey Epstein’s trafficking network. The lawsuit, filed in New York under the Child Victims Act, claimed that Prince Andrew knowingly engaged in sexual acts with Giuffre despite being aware that she was being trafficked by Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. Giuffre alleged that the abuse occurred in Epstein’s New York townhouse, in London at Ghislaine Maxwell’s residence, and in the Virgin Islands. The complaint painted a damning picture of a royal using his status and connections to exploit a vulnerable girl, shielded by a global web of power and silence.Prince Andrew publicly denied the allegations, claiming he had no recollection of meeting Giuffre—even though a widely circulated photo shows them together with Maxwell in the background. Rather than face a public trial and legal discovery, Andrew reached an out-of-court settlement with Giuffre in early 2022, reportedly for several million dollars, without admitting guilt. The settlement effectively ended the case but left critical questions unanswered, including whether others in Epstein’s orbit facilitated or knew of the abuse. The lawsuit against Prince Andrew marked a rare instance where someone of global stature and diplomatic immunity faced direct legal consequences tied to Epstein’s trafficking ring, though many critics saw the quiet settlement as another example of privilege avoiding accountability.to contact me:[email protected]:Final Giuffre v.
