Prince Andrew Faces Renewed FBI Investigation Calls

Prince Andrew, the Duke of York, is reportedly too terrified to travel to the United States amid renewed calls for the FBI to investigate his ties with Jeffrey Epstein. The 64-year-old has largely stayed within the UK, only traveling to Bahrain in the past six years, due to fears of arrest, civil lawsuits, or being subpoenaed. Recent revelations of continued communications with Epstein beyond previously admitted dates have intensified scrutiny around him. Donald Trump's FBI director nominee, Kash Patel, has vowed to thoroughly investigate all connections to Epstein’s network, increasing pressure on the UK government to allow questioning of Andrew. Despite denying allegations of sexual misconduct, Andrew settled out of court with accuser Virginia Giuffre in 2022. Lawyers representing Epstein's victims, along with public figures, have called for the British monarchy to distance itself from Andrew, urging accountability and transparency in handling his case.
