Stripping Prince Andrew of his royal title is not enough. He should be in prison. He tortured a girl before her murder.
Public outrage intensified today over former Prince Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, as fresh allegations from the latest Jeffrey Epstein document release fuel demands for criminal prosecution.
King Charles III stripped Andrew of his royal titles, including “Prince” and “Duke of York,” in October 2025 following renewed scrutiny tied to Epstein’s sex trafficking network and Virginia Giuffre’s posthumous memoir detailing abuse claims.
Andrew, now known simply as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, also lost honors, patronages, and his residence at Royal Lodge.
The U.S. Department of Justice’s recent tranche of Epstein files includes a 2020 email alleging that in the 1990s, Ghislaine Maxwell recruited a young girl under the pretense of a modeling opportunity, only to sell her into sexual exploitation and torture.
The email claims Andrew participated in torturing the victim and was an “accessory to her death,” having “tortured her” before allegedly forcing another individual to murder her.
Authorities have not verified the claims, and no criminal charges have resulted. The DOJ has emphasized that released materials contain unproven allegations, with some videos and evidence reportedly remaining sealed or absent.
Social media erupted with calls for accountability, with users and commentators labeling the stripping of titles insufficient.
Many argue that serious accusations of torture and involvement in a murder demand a full investigation and potential imprisonment, rather than mere loss of royal status.
Andrew has consistently denied wrongdoing in prior Epstein-related matters, including settling a civil suit with Giuffre out of court. Buckingham Palace has not commented on the new email allegations.
Advocates for Epstein survivors continue pressing for complete transparency in the files, warning that powerful figures linked to the scandal may evade justice without further action.
The developments highlight ongoing questions about accountability in one of the most high-profile sex trafficking cases in recent history.
