The death of Virginia Giuffre will leave questions that are now likely to remain unanswered.
Her name will always be associated with the scandals and criminality surrounding the late billionaire sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and his circle - with Ms Giuffre one of the most prominent among his accusers, revealing the trafficking and sexual exploitation of young women.
The photo of her and Prince Andrew, taken in London in 2001, became emblematic of the royal's entanglement with Epstein and was central to his disastrous Newsnight interview in 2019.
The origins of the picture remain uncertain. But Ms Giuffre's death adds another layer to the mystery of what must have inadvertently become one of the most widely viewed photos in royal history.
Epstein - who was said to have taken the photo - died in jail facing sex trafficking charges.
Ghislaine Maxwell - who helped him abuse young girls and is pictured to the right of Prince Andrew and Ms Giuffre - is in prison in the US. Prince Andrew has stepped down from all public duties. And Virginia Giuffre, a smiling teenager in the photo, is now dead.

Pretty sure that was the idea.
Note the word “suicide,” is not in the headline...

No but it is in the body of the article.
The woman was troubled and seriously injured in a recent car accident and was troubled mentally, but it is inescapable to wonder if like Epstein dark forces wanted them dead. One could ask where was Hillary.
Justice will be served on all of these people.
She died waiting for Blondi to punish someone.
Arkancide?
Why commit suicide when you have $15m in the bank? It’s absurd. She hit the jackpot...

That filthy Prince Andrew is a fiend.
Little comfort, given the amount of pain and suffering they cause on the millions on this planet.
Yeah, no kidding. Epstein "suicided" and now this one, as in "dead men tell no tales!" (or woman in this case).
Ghislane Maxwell will be next.
Like I’m going to listen to the network that covered for Jimmy Savile all those years.
Virginia made several very wealthy people very angry with her. Some of them may have chosen to act on that anger.
The Prince also claimed he never puts his arm around any women in photographs specifically to avoid claims like this. As far as I know, that claim has never been proved false.
Virginia Giuffre never filed criminal charges against Prince Andrew, even though sex with a trafficked minor child has no statute of limitations in many jurisdictions.
Also, Giuffre claimed she had sex with Epstein celebrity lawyer, Alan Dershowitz. Dershowitz sued her for defamation. Giuffre instantly retracted the accusation and claimed mistaken identity.
Finally, more than forty other women have sued Epstein or Ghislaine Maxwell for underage sex or trafficking. None of those women claim sex with anyone besides Epstein.
The $15 million is not hers to spend.
Prince Andrew and the Royal Family admitted ZERO guilt to the Giuffre charges.
They paid the $15 million into an organization created by Giuffre to help young women who have been trafficked.
Giuffre is a paid employee of that organization. I have no idea how much she is paid.
