The royal's legal team has opted to smear his accuser
couldn’t get any uglier, his lawyers have revealed their legal strategy for his battle against Virginia Roberts Giuffre. Giuffre has sued the disgraced royal under New York’s Child Victims Act, alleging that Jeffrey Epstein coerced her into non-consensual sex with Andrew when she was 17; Andrew has denied the allegations.
The court filing continues: “It is a striking feature of this case that while lurid allegations are made against Prince Andrew by Giuffre, the only party to this claim whose conduct has involved the wilful recruitment and trafficking of young girls for sexual abuse is Giuffre herself, including while she was an adult.
Mr Brettler also argues that because the age of consent in New York is 17, Ms Giuffre must prove “how she was supposedly forced” to have sex with the Duke. He says that if the judge opts not to throw out the lawsuit, she should provide a “more definitive statement” of her allegations, including when and where the alleged assault in New York took place, specific detail about her lack of consent, any threats made and how the Duke was said to have known she was a sex-trafficking victim forced to engage in sexual acts with him.
The set comes in an array of pinks, reds, and plums, so you don’t even have to worry if it’s their color.
