Prince Andrew is once again in the headlines, following what US prosecutors say is a determination on his part to avoid providing evidence in the ongoing investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s history of sexual abuse.
That’s not going so well, and investigators in the US aren’t backing down, publicly refuting Andrew’s claims that he has been willing to help.
Those attacks on the Prince’s credibility, coupled with the popularity of the four-part Netflix documentary, Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich, has seen renewed attention cast on the scandal’s central characters.
You can find a brief overview of who’s who here, but it’s Ghislaine Maxwell we’ll focus on here.
In a snippet from the Netflix doccie, Maxwell’s involvement in Epstein’s dark history is explored:
On one hand, Ghislaine Maxwell was known as a graceful socialite. On the other, according to her accusers, she was a woman who lurked at the edge of high society, scouting and procuring young women to give to Jeffrey Epstein. Here’s the enduring mystery of Ghislaine Maxwell.
Like something out of a horror movie, really:
How does someone so notorious just vanish?
A frightening reminder of how access to wealth can help avoid any degree of accountability.
