US law enforcement hopes to speak with Prince Andrew about Jeffrey Epstein, according to multiple senior US officials.
In the interview, Andrew — who said he hadn't spoken to Epstein since 2010 — denied allegations he had sex with a woman who claims she was trafficked by Epstein when she was 17. The prince said he had no recollection of ever meeting Virginia Roberts Giuffre and that he was at a pizza restaurant with his daughter on the day in 2001 she alleged they had the sexual encounter.
Andrew has been panned for his defense of his friendship with Epstein, who died by suicide Aug. 10, and what was seen by some as a failure to show any sympathy for the victims.
