Accusations made against Prince Andrew

He is the second son of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Phillip and is known for his involvement in the Jeffery Epstein human trafficking scandal. The Netflix docu-series showed that there were eyewitnesses who alleged that they had seen Prince Andrew doing inappropriate things to a topless young girl.

That girl was later identified as one of the most prominent and outspoken survivors of the child sex trafficking ring that was run by Jeffrey. Prince Andrew has, however, always denied all the allegations against him. He has no recollection of a photograph where he was seen with victims of the sex trafficking ring.

The pyramid scheme to recruit girls

Jefferey and his associates allegedly used a ‘pyramid scheme’ and created a huge web of girls, as young as 14 years, who would work for him. Jeffrey and his associates were at the top of the pyramid and would recruit girls lower down. These girls would recruit even more girls and it goes on and on.

Intimidation and threats sent to survivors

In the documentary, it was alleged that Jeffrey Epstein along with Ghislaine Maxwell, who was an associate of Jeffrey, used to intimidate the girls to stop them from telling anyone what was happening. Allegedly, they had told a survivor ‘lots of ways she could die’ on her regular running route. Allegedly, the girls were always watched with the help of CCTV cameras that prevented them from running away from the island.
