Prince Andrew Can't Sweat

Who reported the property had not been paid for ?

Windsor was sued by the person he originally bought it from for millions, because he had not paid up. She has since withdrawn as the bill has been paid. Not sure where he got the money from.

He has a mortgage on the property as well.

It is also being suggested, that the Queen will offer to pay Giuffre off rather than allow the case to go to court.

Thank you Whitewave . Will Giuffrie accept an out of court
settlement? An American lawyer who acts for abused girls said in an interview she didn’t think so, Giuffrie has several million
in the bank now.

"It is also being suggested, that the Queen will offer to pay Giuffre off rather than allow the case to go to court."

Isn't there something wrong about how very rich people can use their £££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££s to get out of legal trouble? But poor people cannot?

The Mirror has it that "sources" say the Queen won't be funding his costs, and that Charles and William are of the opinion that he can just get himself out of the mess he made. You buys your paper and you takes your choice. This time next year we may know how the cookie crumbles.

Poor people wouldn't have got into this particular mess anyway - they couldn't have afforded the prices in the first place.

You can be sure the cookie will crumble the same old way with rich people buying their ways out of legal trouble.

This sorry affair is a good example of the more you learn, the less you know situation ( my opinion, of course). Are the women looking for justice or a payout? Perhaps both.
I am only mildly ashamed to admit that I find the Andrew part quite entertaining. He should have had a better choice of friends. But didn’t Epstein loan/give Sarah money to pay off her debts? I shall look that up.

Caleo no-one can buy their way out of trouble if the money offered isn’t accepted.

And anyway whatever the outcome Prince Andrews life is ruined now.

His public life is no more .

Not only wealthy people are accused of sexual abuse, but it’s
wealthy people who make the front pages . Others make the local press.

The men who were involved in sexually exploiting and abusing vulnerable girls in Rochdale, Oldham,Oxford, Nottingham and other towns weren’t wealthy. They continue to make the front pages.
As do other men (and a few women) who are prosecuted for the organised sexual exploitation of children or trafficked people. PA is being investigated. His fame and notoriety following the car crash interview mean he’s going to continue to be news. A but like when Clinton was accused by Monika Lewinsky. That was daily news up to and following the impeachment.

Iam I was referring to individuals,

Clinton hit the front pages, your milkman wouldn’t.

If you live in the public eye, you’re much more likely to be newsworthy.
If you’re an individual choir or scout leader and exploit children in your care, you;ll be on the front pages. Andrew’s life is changed for ever.

Iam I agree, I was reply to Elegran’s post re poor people wouldn’t get into this mess.

True they wouldn’t have been a friend of Epstein but they do
get accused of sexual abuse,

My homeopath has practiced for years, i first met him in 1976,
he is also a reiki practitioner, 4 years ago he was accused of touching a woman’s breast , aged 75, found not guilty but even
though so many still consult him it has caused him so much distress . Yes it was in the local press but not Daily Mail.

Anniebach nor will his defence cost him nothing. The costs of defending your innocence can be as much as the price of a decent house. With no apology when it’s all over.

If it’s true that Giuffrie will not accept an out of court settlement, why ?

Anniebach

If it’s true that Giuffrie will not accept an out of court settlement, why ?

She’s already done that once. How much more fame she will have if she can drag it all the way through a court case.
If he’s found guilty which is more than likely in the American justice system, whether he is or not, then she’ll have her five minutes of fame plus damages. If she accepts a settlement it will soon be yesterday's news- apart from going on Oprah.
I’m not sure I’d want to keep telling everyone how much sex I had and with how many different men, if that’s what I’d done, willingly or not.

I absolutely agree Molly.

No me neither mollygo But the world is different now.

GermanShepherdsMum, poor people often can't even afford to pay a lawyer to defend them. Very rich people can afford the cleverest lawyers without a second thought. I don't know how the women who were trafficked managed but I think they may have struggled financially.

Caleo, poor people are always given free legal representation by the state in criminal cases. A poor person is very unlikely to face a civil action such as this.

In the GM case the women were called as defence witnesses. GM is rich enough to pay for her defence. They didn’t have to find any money.

Sorry brain fog. - called as prosecution witnesses. Same applies though .

I know lots of people do find it difficult when women and girls talk about what has happened to them. I tend to think that's the problem of those who find it difficult.
