Prince Andrew Linked to Epstein Flights in Newly Released Documents

Newly released documents from the House Oversight Committee reveal that Prince Andrew was a passenger on Jeffrey Epstein's private jet at least twice in 2000 and 2002, alongside Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and other individuals whose names were redacted. The jet, infamously dubbed the "Lolita Express," was known for transporting young girls, and the files also disclose that Epstein arranged $200 massages for Andrew, the same amount reportedly paid to Epstein's victims. Despite Andrew's repeated denials of any wrongdoing, these revelations add to his controversial association with Epstein, which led to his stepping back from royal duties and the loss of his military titles and patronages. The documents additionally mention tech figures such as Elon Musk, who was noted to have a pending visit to Epstein's Caribbean island in 2014, though there is no evidence these individuals were aware of Epstein's criminal activities. Democrats on the committee emphasize the importance of these files in uncovering all those complicit in Epstein's crimes, while GOP members accuse them of politicizing the investigation. The revelations continue to fuel public scrutiny over the connections between Epstein and prominent figures.
