    Keep going. I’m almost there.

    Sure, it took public release of documents they’ve known about for a decade to do anything about it. But at least THEY are doing something to someone in power.

    The ArtistPaedo Formerly Known As Prince…Andrew? Nice.
    Time will tell if anything comes of it but, HAHA, his legacy and memory is ruined completely and forever. All because he wanted to fuck kiddies, what a total twat.

      They didn’t care about the rapes. They let that shit slide. This is for passing official documents to Epstein. Too bad Virginia Guiffre didn’t get to see him arrested.

          I just hope Virginia realized, at some point in her life, how many people believed her. There is no justice that will undo what was done, but we will get some measure of justice for her and all the other victims if we have to turn the whole world upside to do it (and it looks like we probably will)

    I feel like it’s best form to include the full name of a suspect in the title of an article. I’m currently working with a dude named Andrew and this was just bizarre

      Until he was no longer prince, that was his full name. Royals never adopted surnames.

          It’s historical. Surnames in Europe weren’t a uniform thing until the early 1800s under Napoleon.

          An epithet like “of the house of Windsor” is approximately the same thing, and sure enough if they leave the royalty they usually take that as their surname (see also Harry, Prince of Wales, going as Harry Wales when he was in the military).

          The point of a surname is to disambiguate between people (e.g. Mark, Jacob’s son, or John, the smith). For a prince, if you say Harry you already know which one they’re talking about, so they never needed to truly adopt surnames.

            Tell that to Hatshepsut and the whole string of goddamn Thutmoses she had to put up with. (Yeah they had numbers but when you yell “Thutmose!” you don’t really want all of them.)

          Yeah that’s the surname used by members of their family who don’t get the Prince/Princess title, since princesses and princes don’t need surnames for some reason.
