OVERVIEW: It is said prince Andrew criticised the interview
Why visited Britain’s prince Andrew and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein in New York? He knew to the Epsteins alleged dealings with underage girls?
And had prince Andrew even sex with a young woman (Virginia Roberts) from the circle of Jeffrey Epstein? A wide range of questions about the prince’s contact with the now deceased financier was asked in an interview on the BBC on Saturday.
Read a sample of the questions and answers from the interview here:
Question: You spent the night at the home of a convicted sex offender?
– It was a convenient place to stay for the night. I’ve reviewed this in my head so many times. After all – with the benefit of hindsight – it was certainly wrong to do.
– But at the time I felt that it was the most honest and right thing to do, and I admit fully, that my judgement was probably colored by my tendency to be too honest, but it’s probably just the way it is.
Question: if you withdraw your entire friendship with Epstein?
– Still not, and the reason for that is that the people I met and the opportunities I was given – either by him or because of him – was very useful.
– He was not even as close to me as you might think, we were not so close. So therefore, yes, I would stay in his home, but it was because of his gf, not because of him.
Question: One of the women who have accused Epstein – Virginia Roberts – has made allegations against you also. She says she met you in 2001 (…) She had sex with you (…) Your answer?
– I have no recollection of ever having met this woman, not at all.
Question: She has been very specific about the evening. She has described that she danced with you. And that you was sweating profusely (…)?
– There is a small problem with sweating, because I have a bizarre medical disorder which consists in the fact that I am not perspiring at the time (…) because I had what I would describe as an overdose of adrenaline in the falklands war, when I was fired. It was almost impossible for me to sweat.
Question: Is there any possibility that you may have had sex with this young woman or any young woman – acted by Jeffrey Epstein – in any of his homes?
– If you are a man, it is a positive action to have sex with someone. You have to take action in a positive way, and if you try to displace it, it is very difficult to forget a positive action, and I remember nothing.
