Police Probe New Epstein-Linked Sex Claims
Thames Valley Police are investigating claims that Jeffrey Epstein allegedly sent a woman to visit Andrew at his Royal Lodge home in 2010. The woman, reportedly in her 20s at the time, made the accusation public through her lawyer this week.
A Thames Valley Police spokesperson said: “We are aware of reports about a woman said to have been taken to an address in Windsor in 2010 for sexual purposes. We are assessing the information in line with our established procedures. We take any reports of sexual crimes extremely seriously and encourage anyone with information to come forward. At this time, these allegations have not been reported to Thames Valley Police by either the lawyer or their client.”
