In New York the minimum age for sex is 17, no truck there then, as in the UK.
In the US Virgin Islands, she has more of a claim for underage.
So, rape/assault as a prostitute, mmmmm. Nope she's a money-chasing cow. If she really thought that she was a sex-slave or equivalent, why didn't she protest and ask for assistance at UK Immigration? (or even in the States).
I agree on Prince Andrew's naivety, daft buqqqer, but then he's not known for his innate intelligence. On this one, Ghislaine's views will be interesting and apparently she's willing to back him - I'm sure that the young lady was 'retained' by Epstein but that doesn't mean that Prince Andrew paid for her.... My counsel would be hold your end up, Big Andrew, and then retire to become Governor of South Georgia & the Sandwich Islands, or perhaps even including the Falklands.
The Duchess of York could go with him. No great loss to the UK there....
