Ghislaine Maxwell

[Rosie29]

Sorry no link but BBC news report she has been arrested by FBI.

She Is Innocent

Am I Right ?
I'm Not Wrong !

Maybe once the queen has gone any shielding he is getting will disappear.
At present I think people would be concerned about the queen being upset if Andrew was to be "interviewed" by lawyers but wouldn't give a fig about him. In fact they'd probably be pleased.

[Ken4155]

Further to my earlier remark about fair trials; anyone see the Acting US Attorney, Audrey Strauss, at the press conference. She was stating what Maxwell "Did", not what she was alleged to have done? Bit odd, or is it typically American?

[sanmac]

Ken, why would a prosecutor use the word "alleged"? That word is a defense term.

[Ken4155]

Because, though it was a press conference, it appeared to be akin to an opening argument in a court of law. I've just never come across it before

[Theland]

The Queen should not have the added burden of worrying about Andrew.
This can be put on the back burner for a few years.

[jno]

Americans have no reason to put it on the back burner.

[ladybirder]

Absolutely they don't. No reason at all why they should.

[youngmafbog]

Ken, I too am struggling to see how she will get a fair trial.

And surley her defence will use that too, this trial by media really has to stop or we will see innocent people convicted and guilty ones with good lawyers walk.

[jno]

that's American free speech for you, ymb, and that's where she'll be tried.

[jackthehat]

I just hope that if she is kept in any sort of confinement, the custodians keep a better eye on her than they did Epstein....

There must be an awful lot of exceedingly worried, extremely powerful men (and women) who would prefer that she didn't speak fully and frankly to the FBI.

[jno]

in theory she's on suicide watch, but then so was he as I recall

[bednobs]

I find it very amusing tohear reporters try to pronounce her name and have heard many variations. I used to work with someone of that name and she pronounced her name similarly to "elan" but with an extra flourish/phlegm noise at the front

[gulliver1]

Did Trump ever mix with this lot ?.

[gulliver1]

23.36 T/C Brilliant.

[jno]

maybe she was Flemish, bednobs?

[bednobs]

actually she was from belgium, so maybe!

[Ellipsis]

Deliberately using the short form of youtube address here so that the link goes to the bit of the video where her name is pronounced:

Yes Trump and Harvey Weinstein have been photographers with J E.
And as for his suicide - a post mortem showed an injury to his hyoid bone - in the neck - that could not have come from self infliction. The inference being that he paid someone to do it.

[Rosie29]

Photographed.
