Photo of Andrew lying on laps at Sandringham in new Epstein files
The US Department of Justice released heavily redacted Epstein files including undated photos of Prince Andrew and other public figures under a transparency law, sparking political criticism.
- Prince Andrew, Duke of York appears in an undated photograph lounging across the laps of five women in a trove of court files uploaded to the US Department of Justice website on Friday.
- Under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, the US Department of Justice was legally obliged to release all files by Friday's midnight deadline, and Todd Blanche said protecting Epstein's victims influenced the timing.
- Among the photos are images of convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell smiling at Prince Andrew, six unnamed women’s faces obscured with black squares, and pictures of Michael Jackson and Bill Clinton, former US president.
- As a result, the King took action by formally removing Prince Andrew, Duke of York's HRH style and princely title, while US politicians criticised his 'silence' after missing last month's interview deadline and victims' lawyers condemned extensive redactions in the release.
- The release is likely to intensify scrutiny because Todd Blanche, US deputy attorney general, said safeguarding Epstein's victims means hundreds of thousands more documents will be released over the coming weeks.
