• The FBI arrests Ghislaine Maxwell for her connection to the Epstein case
  • United Kingdom: Prince Andrew abandons his public duties, harassed by the 'Epstein case'

With each new step that the American Justice takes in the 'Epstein case', the siege closes even more on Prince Andrew. The arrest yesterday of Ghislaine Maxwell , the magnate's right-hand man in his international network of sexual exploitation, makes it practically inevitable that the queen's son will have to collaborate and give testimony in a case that has already cost him to be removed from his duties within the royal house. The prosecutor responsible for the procedure, Audrey Strauss , insisted again that it would be very interesting to hear what she has to say, although she declined to comment on whether the Duke of York is being investigated for a crime or if he would simply act as a witness.

"I am not going to comment on the status of anyone in this investigation, but we continue to say that our doors are still open and that we would appreciate your coming to give us an opportunity to hear what you have to say," he explained. In recent months, a cross of accusations has been established between the US Justice and Prince Andrew's representatives, each holding the other party responsible for the fact that he has not yet been given the opportunity to explain his version of events.

The American police announced yesterday that Ghislaine Maxwell, daughter of a British communication magnate, had been detained by the FBI at 8:30 in the morning in a luxury complex in New Hampshire, on the east coast of the United States. Rumors of her location after being hidden for the past year , specifically since Jeffrey Epstein committed suicide last August in a Manhattan prison, placed her in various parts of the world, although it finally appears that she had not left the country.

Minors up to 14 years old

The federal prosecution yesterday attributed six crimes to her that she has always denied: one of inciting minors to travel to participate in sexual acts, another of transporting minors for the purpose of sexual intercourse, two of conspiracy and two others of perjury. According to the information that has appeared on the case during the last decade, Ghislaine - who became the partner of the billionaire but above all the administrator of her businesses and properties - would have been in charge of establishing a network of recruitment of minors and young The girls, in some cases, became 14 years old.

One of the youngest victims, Virginia Giuffre -a young woman who claims that, among other things, she was forced to sleep with Prince Andrés up to three times-, maintains that Maxwell even participated in some of the sexual abuse she suffered When you were barely 15 years old and she was supposedly recruited to work as a masseuse in an exclusive club owned by the current President of the United States, Donald Trump .

The victims, who launched a case years ago that splashes several personalities of American high society, including actors, models and even two presidents of the United States such as Bill Clinton and Trump himself, have claimed to feel relieved with this news. "Day after day I have waited for the news of Maxwell's arrest to arrive so that he can be responsible for his actions. His arrest is a step in that direction, and it really means that the judicial system has not forgotten us." says Jennifer Araoz , one of the plaintiffs.
