Prince Andrew, second son of the Queen of England who was to be tried in the United States for sexual assault, will not ultimately be. The 61-year-old has just reached an out-of-court settlement with his accuser, Virginia Giuffre, and agreed to pay him a sum, the amount of which will not be made public.
On the other hand, Prince Andrew undertakes to make a significant donation to the association of victims of sexual violence which is piloted by the complainant. In the court documents announcing this agreement, accused says ‘regret relationship with sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein’and want to prove it by supporting the victims.
This new judicial episode is a surprise in the United Kingdom. Virginia Giuffre had announced that she wanted to go to trial, but the prince wanted to spare his already damaged public image. New query: How did Prince Andrew manage to convince the plaintiff to accept this agreement?
