Buckingham Palace issues second denial of underage sex claims against Prince Andrew
Fox News ^ | January 04, 2015 | Fox News

Posted on 01/04/2015 12:23:16 AM PST by WhiskeyX

Buckingham Palace officials have again denied claims made by a woman who alleged that she was forced to have sex while underage with Prince Andrew, Duke of York.

The second denial comes after two Sunday papers in Britain published interviews with the woman in which she claimed that she was forced by American financier Jeffrey Epstein to have sex with Prince Andrew at least three times between 1999 and 2002. The woman alleges that the encounters took place in London, New York, and on a Caribbean island owned by Epstein.

A Palace spokesman has said that the allegations are "false and without any foundation."

Putting aside my personal admiration I have for the Queen, some would say that Buckingham Palace was the actual home of the first Kardashian Type Family Circus. This will get the English tongues a-waggin.

I’m more interested in Bill Clinton’s involvement. We know his Arkansas police detail helped him get women so how much is he involved in this and how will impact Hillary Clinton’s presidential hopes????

Without having read the article, what kind of parent allows their under age daughter to go gallivanting all over the world unsupervised? I call Bravo Sierra on this story!

There are so many idiot parents who allow this kind of thing because they are busy or even the prostitute is sending $ back home. She had already been a runaway. Maybe they had no idea where she was. She had been using drugs and had sex before 15.

Who exactly said she was with Alan Dershowitz? In all the articles I just read about this, I don’t see anyone connecting something she said to Dershowitz. He seems to be very strongly ready to attack legally for this claim, so I am inclined to believe him, for now. I would have said before Bill Cosby that he doesn’t seem like the type to be so sleazy but now, who the heck knows?

I know the Duke of York - served alongside him. I would be astonished if there is any truth to any involvement with an underage girl - absolutely astonished - and would be reasonably shocked about his involvement with anything like what is being alleged even if the girls were fully legal. But having said that, there are plenty of parents who do seem to let their daughters do these things, unfortunately.

It must be fully investigated - if it’s false it is very important the men accused are cleared. If there’s any truth to it, then it damned well should be proven and the full force of the law should apply to anybody who did the wrong thing. But it’s so easy to make allegations and so easy for mud to stick.

“Randy” Andy’s illicit associations and those of his wife are well established.

It’s interesting that Alan Dershowitz has been accused but not slick Willie. Meanwhile, I’m sure Gloria Allred is trying to find this trollop.

It is one thing to run away, hitch hiking across the country or something, but how does an underage teen ‘hitch hike’ onto a jet across the Atlantic, particularly since you have Customs services checking aircraft?

AFA using drugs and having sex before 15? Today, that is not all that unusual, unfortunately.

Is it possible that the Prince did have a roll with an teeny-bopper? Anything is possible, but certainly not probable. Again, it sounds like Bravo Sierra.

And often exaggerated too - although he certainly isn't as pure as the driven snow and I would not be at all surprised to hear of relationships with women. But there's a big difference between that and sex parties - I would find that surprising, but not astonishing. And I would find it absolutely astonishing if he'd done anything close to illegal. For a start, he's accompanied by a police officer virtually everywhere he goes and while they would turn a blind eye to 'innocent' activities, I would certainly not expect their discretion to extend to anything like this. And there are other people around him to 'protect him from himself' if he even came close to do something this scandalous. I'd have done it myself in certain situations (I never had to, but there are expectations placed on their friends and colleagues). I can't know for certain. I've never been involved in a situation where it actually came up - but it really would astonish me.

It's not just a matter of it being at odds with the behaviour I'd expect of the man - although it is to some extent. It's the other factors involved.

I also wouldn't be expecting the Palace to be so strident in their denials unless they truly knew there wasn't a case. They are going much further than they need to - and their job above all else is to protect the Queen. Her Majesty might not throw her son to the wolves (although if he actually did something like this, I wouldn't honestly put it past her) but the courtiers certainly would if they thought it was needed.

That was said about Harry as well. Yet he was photographed naked with a naked young woman using him as a shield in Las Vegas.

At the time there was talk about ,”where were his minders?”

Oh, BTW, an “exclusive” as they say on Daily Mail

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2895735/The-account-masseuse-centre-explosive-Prince-Andrew-sex-slave-drama-telling-truth.html

The young lady supposedly giving the inside story. I find it odd but plausible.

According to her she was “discovered” if you can call it that, at Mar a Lago. She readily claims to be a good-girl-gone-bad. I find her fixation on Epstein to be odd in the extreme ... But her long marriage in Thailand took it over the top.

Prince Harry wasn’t doing anything illegal. Big difference. He was also fairly immune from any scandal from such behaviour (well, he was at that stage - he had the ‘boys will be boys’ defence available - now he’s turned thirty, he’s been told he can’t rely on that anyone). He also doesn’t always have personal close protection. I’m not going to say anymore about that. But the Duke of York on the other hand basically does always have a police bodyguard with him.

“how will impact Hillary Clinton’s presidential hopes????”

For Dems, this sort of activity and being close to it are resume enhancers. “It’s just sex” remember?

So the Prince had sex with a 17 year old prostitute he did not pay but had a friend pay for him.

In London where the age of consent is 16. And paid $15k.

In New York where the age of consent is 17.

And in Thailand where the age of consent is 15.

And some unnamed Caribbean Island.

And now said prostitute is selling her story to the British Tabloid Press.

While I am to an extent defending the Prince on the grounds that I think this story is exceedingly unlikely to be true for various reasons, it's important that the legal situation is understood. While the general age of consent in the UK is 16, and prostitution is also legal in the UK, it is still a crime to pay anybody under 18 for sex.
