Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has been arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office by police investigating the former prince’s dealings with the convicted child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
- Photographs of unmarked police cars and plainclothes officers at Wood Farm on the Sandringham estate just after 8am were published on Thursday.
- A statement from Thames Valley police said: “We have today (19/2) arrested a man in his 60s from Norfolk on suspicion of misconduct in public office and are carrying out searches at addresses in Berkshire and Norfolk. The man remains in police custody at this time.”
- The arrest came as Mountbatten-Windsor celebrated his 66th birthday at home.
- Police had been assessing allegations that Mountbatten-Windsor – formerly known as Prince Andrew – shared sensitive information with the billionaire child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein when he was a UK trade envoy.
- Oliver Wright, Thames Valley Police’s assistant chief constable, said: “Following a thorough assessment, we have now opened an investigation into this allegation of misconduct in public office.”
Probably 99% of people would. Even Joe Biden abused his power to pardon his son. The ones who wouldn’t are exceptional.
who was railroaded on a series of false accusations, with known Russian agents who later admitted it.
They weren’t false allegations, he openly admitted to, and was convicted of, lying about being a drug user on a form 4473 when purchasing a firearm, and for $1.4M in tax fraud.
He had already repaid the taxes at the time the DoJ went after him, had already confessed to both, and was ready to plea like any other citizen charged with the same offenses when that plea deal was thrown out and the witch hunt began – and at no point do either of those offenses warrant a Congressional hearing wherein nude photos from your stolen hard drive get blown up to poster size and displayed for Congress and the entire world.
So you agree they weren’t false?
To reiterate, there was a plea deal.
I don’t understand why you’re reiterating this?
Shocking.
LOL I love it when people lob personal insults in lieu of any explanation. Just confirms my suspicions.
Maybe it’s a regional thing.
You’re suggesting everyone in the UK is kinder and more ethical?
no
