“Virginia Giuffre told me she had slept with Prince Andrew” – Corriere.it

At the trial, the testimony of a former friend of the great accuser of Elisabetta’s son appears: “It was 2001, she said it as if it were cool, and she let me into their circle, it doesn’t deserve to be compensated”

LONDON “She also told me she had gone to bed.” Virginia Giuffre’s version takes on weight with the statements of a woman who testified at the trial against Ghislaine Maxwell and who claims that Andrea’s alleged victim also told her, in 2001, of having had sexual relations with Elisabetta’s son. If the Duke of York’s lawyers have so far tried to contain the damage to the image, it is likely that a new tactic will now be necessary: ​​with the conclusion of the lawsuit against Maxwell, found guilty of trafficking in minors and considered an accomplice of Jeffrey Epstein and the its abuses, victims are no longer required to observe silence.

The case of Carolyn Andriano, 35, who, renouncing anonymity, spoke to the Daily Mail. In 2001, she said, she was reached by a message from Giuffre while she was cleaning her bedroom. “” Guess who I’m with? “. I thought he had gossip so I immediately replied, “Who?” “. Virginia, her friend at the time and a little older than her, replied that she was in London and was going out to dinner with Maxwell, Epstein and Andrea. “I didn’t want to believe it, it seemed like an exaggeration, but after all Virginia knew a lot of important people.” Days later, back in Florida, Virginia showed her the photograph with the prince. Carolyn asked her if she had entered a royal palace, Virginia replied no, but she had slept with the prince. “She didn’t seem upset, in fact she said it as if it were quite cool», Added Carolyn, whose story also revealed resentment towards GiuffrAnd. It was she, she explained, who recruited her and got her into the circle of Epstein and Maxwell, where she was persuaded to have sex massages, to pose naked, to have intercourse with men much older than her. At 18, she told in the classroom in New York, she was discharged because she no longer liked her. Between substance abuse and prostitution, an even more difficult chapter opened up for her. “I felt useless,” he told the Mail. “I thought I was put on this earth to be used and sexually harassed. There is no figure that could heal what has been done to me. Now that I have children I know, as a mother and as a woman, that I would never be able to behave like Maxwell. ‘ As for you, Giuffre “deserves what Maxwell deserves”: without her, Carolyn might never have met Ghislaine or Epstein. “I don’t think she deserves to be compensated. I don’t think she was forced to do anything “, he said of Giuffre, whom he does not consider a victim. Giuffre admitted a while ago that he selected girls to introduce to Maxwell and Epstein, “One of the things I regret most bitterly.” Like Virginia, Carolyn came from a penniless, sometimes violent family, with drinking parents. She was lured around the same age.
