If those connected with Jeffrey Epstein believe that they are now safe because the financier and convicted pedophile is dead, they’re wrong.
Epstein or no Epstein, the investigation continues, and we now know that the FBI is in possession of a photo that probably has the United Kingdom’s Prince Andrew — a known associate of Epstein’s — sweating.
What does it show?
The photo shows Prince Andrew with Virginia Roberts Giuffre, one of the women who accused Epstein of sexually abusing her as a teenager. The FBI seized the photo — and 19 others — back in 2011 when the agency conducted an interview with Giuffre, The Telegraph reported on Thursday.
In the photo, Andrew can be seen standing close to Giuffre, wrapping his arm around her waist, while smiling for the camera. See for yourself:
No Title
No Description
The photo, according to the Telegraph, dates back to early 2001. It is believed to have been taken at the London home of Ghislaine Maxwell, a close friend of Epstein.
Photoshopped?
One of the things that the FBI will be looking to determine is whether or not the photo is real. Some around Prince Andrew are already claiming that it is not.
“Andrew’s fingers appear quite slender, like a girl’s fingers,” an unnamed source told the New York Post. “They are also a strange shade of red. His real fingers are actually much chubbier, quite small and chubby.”
It has to be said that if it is photoshopped, someone did one heck of a job. There certainly isn’t anything which stands out as obviously not belonging, which tends to be the case when such a method is used.
Giuffre and her supporters are also not buying what appears to be a rather flimsy explanation.
. . . One Thousand Words
“He knows exactly what he’s done, and I hope he comes clean about it,” Giuffre told reporters this week.

Giuffre claims that when she was a teenager, Epstein forced her to become a “sex slave” and also forced her to have sexual relations with Prince Andrew. If the photo is indeed from 2001, Giuffre would have been around 16 years of age.
Prince Andrew has denied all allegations of misconduct and says he wasn’t aware of Epstein’s misconduct — but it’s getting harder for him to explain his actions. In a recently resurfaced video, he appears to have been inside Epstein’s New York home in 2010 — after Epstein had already been investigated and prosecuted the first time.
