FBI Ends Prince Andrew Epstein Investigation Without Charges

The FBI has officially ended its investigation into Prince Andrew's connections with convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein, concluding that no charges will be brought against the Duke of York or any other high-profile associates. This decision comes after a comprehensive review ordered by the Trump-appointed leadership of the US Department of Justice and FBI, which found no credible evidence of wrongdoing or a 'client list' involving prominent individuals. Prince Andrew has denied all allegations but previously settled a lawsuit without admitting liability and stepped back from royal duties in 2019 due to the controversy. The FBI and DOJ confirmed Epstein's suicide and dismissed conspiracy theories about his death and blackmail activities. Victims and advocates have expressed outrage, calling the closure of the case disgraceful and feeling silenced, especially following the suicide of Epstein accuser Virginia Giuffre. Additionally, the DOJ plans to release hours of CCTV footage from Epstein's final days in custody as part of the investigation's transparency efforts.
