Zero Hedge – Prince Andrew Claims He’s Offered Cooperate Three Times; DOJ Says He’s “Unequivocally” Refused
“Lawyers for Prince Andrew refuted claims that he has been uncooperative with US prosecutors investigating Jeffrey Epstein accomplices, claiming in a Monday statement that the prince has offered to help the US Department of Justice three times this year, according to Reuters.
“Unfortunately, the DOJ has reacted to the first two offers by breaching their own confidentiality rules and claiming that the Duke has offered zero cooperation,” said Andrews’s lawyers, Blackfords. “In doing so, they are perhaps seeking publicity rather than accepting the assistance proffered.” The lawyers claim the DOJ only requested Andrew’s help on January 2nd, and that he has never been a target of their investigation (just like Comey told Trump?).
Federal prosecutors hit back later Monday, with US Attorney Geoffrey Berman saying that Andrew has “unequivocally” refused to be interviewed as part of their investigation into Epstein’s sex crimes.” . . . (more)
“”Itâs a huge statement of intent from the US and it moves Andrew into the realms of a criminal investigation,” said one source, adding “Itâs also frankly a diplomatic nightmare.“”

“The DOJ is invoking Britainâs treaty obligations as it demands the prince be made available. Prosecutors for the Southern District of New York bypassed Buckingham Palace to file a âmutual legal assistanceâ request for assistance in a criminal investigation to the UK Home Office in order to force the royal to testify, The Sun reported.”
