The Epstein case continues……
Prince Andrew has reportedly been served with a lawsuit alleging underage sex, in connection with the ongoing Epstein legal scandal.
Virginia Giuffre filed the lawsuit in August of this year.
It remains to be seen what will happen to Epstein’s co-conspirators, and many are wondering if we will ever see mass arrests for the political elite involved in his syndicate.
Ghislaine Maxwell was recently ordered to turn over evidence which would implicate the Clinton family, so this case should take some interesting turns in the coming weeks and months…..
Here is what we currently know:
The debut hearing for Prince Andrew on Virginia Giuffre's lawsuit has ended, and the judge showed little patience for the royal's service arguments.

The Hill had more on the story:
Prince Andrew, Duke of York, has been served a lawsuit from an American woman alleging that he had sex with her when she was underage.
Virginia Roberts Giuffre first filed the lawsuit in a New York federal court in early August, in which she alleged that Prince Andrew abused her on multiple occasions while she was trafficked by convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
According to a court document filed Friday, the Duke of York was served the lawsuit on Aug. 27 at his home, The Royal Lodge in Windsor.

Interesting choice of US attorney for Prince Andrew. Andrew Brettler's clients have included Armie Hammer (rape allegations), Bill Cosby (60 sexual assault accusers), Bryan Singer (accused of sexually assaulting minors) and Danny Masterson (facing prison on three rape charges).

Prince Andrew’s lawyer had this to say, according to Law And Crime:
“We believe that this is a baseless, non-viable and potentially unlawful suit,” argued the prince’s lawyer Andrew B. Brettler, a Los Angeles-based attorney known for representing Hollywood luminaries accused of sexual misconduct like Armie Hammer, actor Danny Masterson, director Bryan Singer and filmmaker Brett Ratner.
Giuffre’s attorney David Boies insisted that service was proper.
“We’ve proceeded to serve Prince Andrew in several ways pursuant to Article 10 of the Hague Convention,” Boies said.
