Ex-Prince Andrew's arrest in relation to Epstein scandal spurs attacks on Trump team
Source: Raw Story · Bias: Far Left
Summary
Ex-Prince Andrew, British King Charles III's younger brother, was arrested by Thames Valley police on Thursday on suspicion of misconduct in public office in connection with the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. Andrew was stripped of his royal titles in October and forced to vacate his home earlier this month. He has denied wrongdoing but appears multiple times in files released by the U.S. Department of Justice, as does President Donald Trump, who was close friends with Epstein. The arrest has prompted widespread commentary about the contrast between accountability in Britain versus the United States. Critics note that Andrew faces charges for misconduct in public office—the exact charge the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled American presidents cannot be prosecuted for. Commentators highlighted the irony that a British royal faces greater legal accountability than the American president.Watch video below. Your browser does not support the video tag.
