Where, Prince Andrew, is all your promised help?
The latest document dump in the Jeffrey Epstein child sex trafficking case includes the names of very powerful, prominent people — Bill Clinton among them, of whom Epstein reportedly said, ‘Clinton likes them young’.
Clinton himself claims to have no knowledge of Epstein’s ‘terrible crimes’.
Also mentioned in this latest trove: Prince Andrew.
Before we get into all that, let’s recall the Prince’s statement in 2019, about two months after Epstein’s suicide.
‘I continue to unequivocally regret my ill-judged association with Jeffrey Epstein’, Andrew said — an association that began in 1999, continued long after Epstein pleaded guilty in 2008 to soliciting an underage prostitute, and allegedly included trips to Epstein’s private island, known to locals as ‘pedophile island.’
‘His suicide has left many unanswered questions’, Andrew’s statement continued, ‘particularly for his victims, and I deeply sympathize . . . Of course, I am willing to help any appropriate law enforcement agency with their investigations, if required’.
Is ‘required’ the key qualifier here? It certainly seems so.
Here’s the thing: There is no way back into the royal fold for Andrew ever, ever, ever. His legacy is trashed. That is, unless he does the right thing and starts talking. Otherwise his involvement with a known child sex trafficker will be the first line of his obituary. It will be the only thing he’s remembered for.
Can he really live with that?

These latest documents, as royal expert Phil Dampier told , are ‘the final nail in the coffin’ for Andrew. Esteemed royal biographer Tom Bower said that the royal family needs to ‘bury and forget’ him.
‘It’s a danger for the Palace’, Bower said. ‘They don’t know what more bombs will be dropped’.
This release resurfaces claims from a Jane Doe 3 alleging, in a 2014 court filing, that she was ‘forced to have sexual relations’ with Andrew ‘when she was a minor in three separate geographical locations’: once in London, once in New York, and again on Epstein’s private island ‘in an orgy with numerous other under-age girls’.
Not only that — the pedo-financier is suspected of having worked as a spy for Mossad and the CIA. According to a former Israeli intelligence agent, Andrew was considered a ‘useful idiot’ by Epstein.
Former Israel prime minister Ehud Barak met with the late pedophile 36 times and was photographed outside Epstein’s Manhattan penthouse in 2016.
Ex-CIA chief William J. Burns also met with Epstein multiple times in 2014. Former FBI head Louis Freeh, who served under Clinton, is also named, ‘because he may have knowledge concerning travel of Bill Clinton’, according to the documents.
How is it that a powerless Prince Andrew hasn’t been interrogated by Scotland Yard? Or Interpol?
Jane Doe 3 said that Epstein commanded her to ‘give the Prince whatever he demanded’.
How is it that Andrew can still fly under the radar, doing God knows what, without being investigated for allegations that he participated in underage sex trafficking?

‘Prince Andrew wasn’t being blackmailed’, former Mossad operative Ari Ben-Menashe said in a 2020 interview. ‘He was being used as a useful idiot . . . to bring in some of the celebrities’.
And wow, if these documents don’t read like a who’s who of the Illuminati: Donald Trump, Leonardo DiCaprio, Bruce Willis, Stephen Hawking, one-time top Bill Clinton aide Doug Band, Naomi Campbell, Cate Blanchett, the late Michael Jackson, the magician David Copperfield, the late New Mexico governor Bill Richardson, and Cameron Diaz all appear.
None have been accused of wrongdoing.
Ghislaine Maxwell, currently serving a 20-year-sentence for child sex trafficking in connection with Epstein’s crimes, maintains her innocence — and her shameless sense of victimhood here.
‘If you look at this crime, this overall crime’, her lawyer Arthur L. Aidala said on Wednesday, ‘it’s all about men abusing women for a long period of time . . . and it’s only one person in jail — a woman’.
So Maxwell does acknowledge that men in Epstein’s circle were harming women for years. Well then, why not say what she knows? Why not name names?
She has nothing to lose — in fact, she would have the greatest redemption arc in modern history.
The same could be said of Prince Andrew. He will live the rest of his life in exile. Why not make it mean something? Why not air out the powerful predators who walk among us?
Speaking of: how has Bill Clinton evaded any interrogation by law enforcement?
Former Israel prime minister Ehud Barak (above) met with the late pedophile 36 times and was photographed outside Epstein’s Manhattan penthouse in 2016.
Lest we forget, this is a man who was accused by Juanita Broadderick of rape, who has multiple allegations of sexual harassment in his past, and whose close relationship with billionaire Ron Burkle — who had his own private plane dubbed ‘Air F**k One’ and a penchant for younger women — was the subject of a lengthy Vanity Fair exposé in 2008.
No wonder conspiracy theories abound as to Epstein’s manner of death. Not one single person on Epstein’s flight logs or visitors to his NYC townhouse or his Palm Beach mansion or his private island, save Maxwell, have ever been called to account.
Here was Cindy McCain on C-Span in January 2020, during a talk about human trafficking at Florida International University — a clip that has since resurfaced:
‘You know, it’s like everything’, she said. ‘It hides in plain sight. Epstein was hiding in plain sight. We all knew about him. We all knew what he was doing. We had no one that was — no legal aspect that would go after him. They were all afraid of him — for whatever reason, they were afraid of him’.
How can this still be the case now that Epstein is long dead? How is it that a named witness, Johanna Sjoberg, can claim in these documents that Prince Andrew sexually assaulted her, and the response from Clarence House is silence?
Despite all of Andrew’s promises to help make this right, as of 2020 prosecutor Geoffrey S. Berman told the press that ‘Prince Andrew has provided zero cooperation’.
Two years later, Andrew, like the coward he is, was back making empty promises.
In February 2022, after reaching a reported $16 million settlement with accuser Virginia Guiffre, Andrew promised in a statement to ‘demonstrate his regret for his association with Epstein’ by supporting the ‘fight against the evils of sex trafficking, and by supporting its victims’.
There’s never been a better time to make good on that vow. Will the disgraced Prince Andrew dare?
