'Zero cooperation': US Attorney says Prince Andrew has ignored FBI's interview requests | BevanShields
The development threatens to engulf the royal family in a fresh crisis given the Duke of York had pledged during his disastrous tell-all interview to cooperate with law enforcement agencies, as well as in a later statement announcing his departure from royal duties.
The comments are highly significant because until now it has been unclear whether the Federal Bureau of Investigation would even want to speak with Andrew.Credit:In his now infamous interview with the BBC'sprogram, Andrew said he was prepared to give testimony or give a statement under oath "if push came to shove and the legal advice was to do so".
The interview, in which Andrew vehemently denied he had had sex with a woman who says she was trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein, spectacularly backfired and he was forced to abandon his royal duties days later.In a statement announcing that decision, the Queen's second-eldest son said he would cooperate with investigations.
