The Epstein files reveal serious misconduct allegations against Andrew regarding sharing confidential information as a trade envoy, not some grand global conspiracy. British institutions are properly investigating these specific claims about improper information sharing, and the focus should remain on whether laws were broken in that capacity. The lurid theories about vast criminal networks have fallen flat because actual criminal cases require real evidence, not guilt by association.
Andrew's connections to Epstein extended far beyond information sharing and continued years after Epstein's conviction for child sex offenses. The former prince actively vouched for a convicted sex offender to Middle Eastern leaders and maintained contact through intermediaries despite claiming he'd cut ties. Medical professionals and institutions appear complicit in enabling Epstein's trafficking operation while Andrew's victims were dismissed as liars for years.
