Former Prince Andrew Has Been Arrested By Authorities In The U.K. · The Epstein Chronicles

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: What's up everyone, and welcome to another episode of the
• 0:03
  Epstein Chronicles. You know, usually when I wake up in
• 0:07
  the morning and head to the studio, there is a
• 0:10
  ton of bad news to talk about. Well, today we
• 0:14
  have some good news to talk about. And that good
• 0:17
  news is the Joe Exotic of the Windsor family has
• 0:21
  been arrested by authorities in the UK and he was
• 0:25
  arrested for allegedly passing confidential information onto Jeffrey Epstein. Now,
• 0:32
  of course it's not the kind of charges that we want, right.
• 0:36
  Everybody wants him to be held accountable for what he
• 0:39
  did to Virginia. But we have to live in the
• 0:42
  real world, and when we're talking about people like Prince
• 0:45
  Andrew and other powerful people like him, we have to
• 0:49
  start somewhere, Right, every great journey starts with the first step,
• 0:54
  and hopefully this is the first step to real justice,
• 0:58
  because you know they're gonna have question for him, and
• 1:02
  now that he is in custody and under investigation, maybe
• 1:07
  there'll be a way to get him to speak with
• 1:09
  authorities in the United States about what he knows or
• 1:13
  doesn't know. But one thing is for sure, this is
• 1:16
  the first step. Right when we're talking about people like
• 1:19
  Prince Andrew, powerful people, you have to get creative if
• 1:23
  you want to hold them accountable. And this is why
• 1:26
  I've talked about process, and this is why I've talked
• 1:28
  about going after people via the money trail, because that's
• 1:32
  the kind of shit that sticks. There's no arguing with
• 1:36
  what the money trail says. It is what it is.
• 1:39
  It doesn't lose its memory, it doesn't get destroyed on
• 1:43
  cross examination. It tells the story right, and that's the
• 1:47
  kind of story that leads to people like Prince Andrew
• 1:51
  actually going to prison. And as I've said multiple times
• 1:54
  over the years, I'll take whatever we can get as
• 1:58
  long as these people end up in prison and it
• 2:01
  opens the investigation up further. I think that's a victory. Now.
• 2:05
  Is it an astonishing first round knockout victory. Of course not.
• 2:09
  But folks, let's not act like this isn't a big deal.
• 2:12
  We're talking about a prince of the blood, one of
• 2:16
  the members of the royal family of England, being arrested
• 2:20
  for passing confidential information to Jeffrey Epstein. And it's not
• 2:24
  just him, mandelssh allegedly did the same thing. So do
• 2:29
  you just think it's those two dudes over in the
• 2:31
  UK or do you think there were other people doing
• 2:33
  the same thing around the world. And it really goes
• 2:37
  to strengthen the argument that Jeffrey Epstein was collecting information
• 2:42
  and then disseminating that information to whoever was the highest bidder,
• 2:46
  or using it himself to enrich himself and his friends.
• 2:49
  But nothing's free. When he would enrich his friends, he
• 2:53
  would also entangle them in his crimes, so that was
• 2:57
  all part of the hustle. And Prince Andrew passing on
• 3:00
  this confidential information is a big ass deal. I mean,
• 3:04
  we're talking about a serious, serious issue. Not only a
• 3:09
  prince but a trade envoy who's there to represent the
• 3:13
  UK is passing classified information onto their buddy Jeffrey Epstein,
• 3:19
  who's working for god knows who. Not exactly what I
• 3:23
  would call a good look. Today's article is from the
• 3:27
  AP and the headline Andrew mount Baton Winsor arrested on
• 3:31
  suspicion of misconduct in public office. This article was authored
• 3:37
  by AP staff Andrew mount Batton Windsor, the former British
• 3:43
  prince who was stripped of his royal titles because of
• 3:46
  his links to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein was arrested
• 3:50
  Thursday on suspicion of misconduct in public office. While Andrew
• 3:56
  has consistently denied any wrongdoing in connection with his friendship
• 3:59
  with Epstein, concerns about Mount Baton Windsor's links to the
• 4:04
  late financier have dabbed the Royal family for more than
• 4:07
  a decade. Well, yeah, that's usually what happens when you're
• 4:10
  accused of sexually assaulting somebody, a trafficked underage girl, and
• 4:14
  then you get onto the BBC Newsnight program and make
• 4:17
  a fool of yourself. Usually that ends up pretty bad
• 4:21
  for you. And my guess is if Prince Andrew could
• 4:24
  go back in time and do it all over again,
• 4:26
  he would have never given that interview in the first place.
• 4:30
  I mean, talk about one of the worst interviews in
• 4:32
  the history of worst interviews. I remember watching it as
• 4:36
  it happened, and I couldn't believe that this dude was
• 4:39
  saying the things that he was saying, Like you could
• 4:41
  tell he was lying in real time. Thames Valley Police
• 4:47
  said that a man in his sixties from Norfolk in
• 4:50
  eastern England was arrested and remained in custody. The force,
• 4:54
  which covers areas of London, including Mount Baton, Winsor's former home,
• 4:59
  did not IDENTI defy the suspect in line with standred
• 5:02
  procedure in Britain, but pointed to this statement when asked
• 5:05
  to confirm if Andrew was arrested. And it's a little
• 5:10
  different over in the UK, right, it's not as much
• 5:12
  of a spectacle as it is here in America when
• 5:15
  somebody gets hemmed up. But it's obvious that it's Prince
• 5:19
  Andrew who was arrested. They're just not going to say
• 5:22
  anything about it, at least not yet. I'm sure they're
• 5:25
  going to make a statement at some point, but this
• 5:27
  is right in line with typical procedure over in the UK. Now,
• 5:34
  Bounton Windsor, who turned sixty six on Thursday, moved to
• 5:37
  his brother, King Charles the Third's estate in Norfolk after
• 5:41
  he was evicted from his longtime home near Windsor Castle
• 5:45
  earlier this month. YO talk about a great birthday, President, huh.
• 5:49
  I guess hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein and passing them
• 5:52
  confidential information wasn't a good idea after all, was it?
• 5:56
  Prince Andrew? After the ear Charles said that the law
• 6:01
  must take its course in the investigation of his brother. Well, yeah,
• 6:06
  what else can he say? I mean, honestly, the king
• 6:08
  can't really say much at this point. He's between the
• 6:12
  proverbial rock and a hard place. Imagine your brother was
• 6:17
  Prince Andrew, and imagine he was this big of a
• 6:20
  moron making your life this difficult. But him getting arrested
• 6:25
  obviously not a good look for the Royal family. I mean,
• 6:29
  you want to talk about optics, and not only optics
• 6:32
  but precedent. Now that Prince Andrew has been arrested, the
• 6:36
  floodgates could open for the Royal family. And I really
• 6:39
  think this is a turning point in the history of
• 6:42
  the monarchy and the UK. I truly believe that. Now.
• 6:46
  Of course, I'm certainly no expert on the monarchy or
• 6:49
  on the UK, but I think there is a change
• 6:54
  in the wind, and I think people have had enough.
• 6:58
  And I think that getting a look at those Epstein files,
• 7:02
  and I'm not talking about all this salacious stuff. I'm
• 7:04
  talking about the verifiable way these people talk about the
• 7:08
  rest of us, about how they feel about the rest
• 7:11
  of us, and I think that really put things into
• 7:14
  perspective for a lot of people who might not have
• 7:17
  understood the sort of evil that we're dealing with. And
• 7:22
  when I say evil, I'm not talking about, you know,
• 7:25
  some cartoon villain. I'm talking about the people that are
• 7:28
  in control of your life, people giving you loans, people
• 7:33
  that are in charge of the economy, people that are
• 7:36
  in charge of the countries. These people, they have a
• 7:39
  lot of contempt for you. And the only time you're
• 7:42
  worst shit to them is when there's an election. That's it.
• 7:47
  Besides that, they're going to do whatever they want whenever
• 7:50
  they want to do it, and obviously they don't give
• 7:52
  a shit what the rest of us think. And after
• 7:55
  people saw those emails, I don't think that was something
• 7:59
  that could be the anymore because all you have to
• 8:02
  do is spend a little bit of time reading through
• 8:04
  those emails and you understand very quickly that you, in fact,
• 8:09
  are not part of the club. Thames Valley Police previously
• 8:13
  said it was assessing reports that amount Batton Winsor sent
• 8:17
  confidential trade reports to Epstein in twenty ten, when the
• 8:21
  former Prince was Britain Special Envoy for International Trade. Those
• 8:26
  reports them from correspondence between the two men that was
• 8:29
  among the millions of pages of documents from the US
• 8:33
  Justice Department's investigation into Epstein that were released last month.
• 8:38
  So the FBI had this information, the DOJ had this information.
• 8:43
  Why didn't they give it to the English government? Why
• 8:45
  did they sit on it? Why did they let Prince
• 8:48
  Andrew just skate? Unless Prince Andrew was given that information
• 8:54
  to an American asset, I'll let you chew on that
• 8:57
  for a minute. Following a thorough assessment, we have now
• 9:00
  opened an investigation into this allegation of misconduct, and Public
• 9:04
  Office Assistant Chief Constable Oliver Wright said in a statement.
• 9:08
  We understand the significant public interest in the case and
• 9:12
  we will provide updates at the appropriate time. The arrest
• 9:16
  came his pictures circulated online that appeared to show unmarked
• 9:20
  police cars at wood Farm, Mount Batten's Windsor home on
• 9:24
  the Sandringham estate in Norfolk, with plain clothes officers gathering outside. YO.
• 9:30
  This is a stunning fall from grace and one well deserved.
• 9:35
  And it's a damn shame that Virginia isn't with us
• 9:39
  to see it happen, because this is what she pushed
• 9:42
  for for a very long time. And I can guarantee
• 9:45
  you if she was still with us, she would be
• 9:48
  taken a victory lab In his statement, Charles reiterated that
• 9:53
  he would cooperate with the investigation of the former prince.
• 9:57
  Let me stay clearly, the law must take its the
• 10:00
  King said, as this process continues, it would not be
• 10:04
  right for me to comment further on this matter. The
• 10:07
  statement signed Charles R. Also sought to distance the royal
• 10:11
  family from Mount bat and Winsor. My family and I
• 10:15
  will continue in our duty and service to you all
• 10:18
  he said, And look real talk. If the Queen was
• 10:22
  still alive, I don't think Prince Andrew would have been arrested.
• 10:26
  She protected him like it was nobody's business, protected him
• 10:31
  like smog, protected his gold, and she did everything in
• 10:37
  her power to make sure that Andrew never dealt with consequence. Well,
• 10:42
  guess what, Mummy is no longer here to protect you,
• 10:45
  you sweaty ass nons. And speaking of sweat, my guess
• 10:50
  is he's probably sweating as we speak. The late Queen
• 10:56
  Elizabeth the Second, forced her second son to give up
• 10:59
  royal dy duties and then his charitable work in twenty nineteen,
• 11:03
  after he tried to explain away his ties to Epstein
• 11:07
  during a catastrophic interview with the BBC. Well, she was
• 11:11
  forced to do that, but he wasn't exiled, he wasn't
• 11:15
  banned from royal functions. She just had to make a
• 11:20
  show that she was doing something. But more details about
• 11:26
  the relationship emerged in a book published last year, and
• 11:30
  Charles stripdam of the right to be called a prince
• 11:33
  and ordered him to move. Then came the unprecedented announcement
• 11:37
  last week that Buckingham Palace was ready to cooperate in
• 11:41
  the event of a police inquiry into Mount Baton Winsor's
• 11:44
  links to Ebstein talk about getting voted off the island.
• 11:50
  Charles was forced to act after the US Justice Department
• 11:53
  released millions of pages of Epstein documents that revealed the
• 11:57
  extent of his relationship with Mount Baton Windsor and showed
• 12:00
  that their correspondence continued long after Epstein pleaded guilty in
• 12:04
  two thousand and eight to soliciting a minor for prostitution.
• 12:09
  Epstein was arrested on sex trafficking charges brought by federal
• 12:12
  prosecutors in New York in twenty nineteen. He took his
• 12:16
  own life in jail while awaiting trial or did he
• 12:20
  I love how confident they say that, Oh yeah, he
• 12:22
  took his own life while in jail. Oh okay, cool,
• 12:25
  let's see the evidence. As far as Prince Andrew's bitch
• 12:29
  ass goes, couldn't happen to a better person, and he
• 12:35
  deserves everything that's coming his way. And make no mistake,
• 12:38
  Andrew's in serious jeopardy here, serious jeopardy, and he very
• 12:42
  well could find himself in prison. Now, obviously we're a
• 12:47
  long way away from that happening, but it's certainly something
• 12:49
  that's on the table. And if you would have asked
• 12:52
  me just a year ago if Prince Andrew was in
• 12:56
  any jeopardy of ever going to jail or prison, the
• 12:59
  answer would have been no. But you can't argue with
• 13:02
  the documentation, you cannot argue with the money trail, and
• 13:06
  you can't argue with the fact that Prince Andrew has
• 13:09
  been caught red handed here handing off confidential information to
• 13:14
  Jeffrey Epstein. So for the first time in his life,
• 13:18
  Prince Andrew mount Batten Winsor is going to have to
• 13:22
  face the consequences of his actions. And you know what
• 13:26
  I'm here for it all of the information that goes
• 13:30
  with this episode can be found in the description box.
