Lawyers representing the victims of Jeffrey Epstein have called for other associates, including Prince Andrew, to be investigated
The disgraced British socialite was sentenced by a New York judge on Tuesday to 20 years in prison for her "pivotal" role recruiting young girls for her ex-boyfriend during the 1990s and early 2000s.
Andrew was stripped of his HRH status, military titles and royal patronages earlier this year after reaching an out-of-court settlement with his accuser Virginia Roberts Giuffre. She told The Mirror: "Virginia Giuffre's civil case should be just the beginning. Everyone associated with Epstein and Maxwell should be carefully investigated."
The 60-year-old has British, French and US citizenship but under US law she must spend the first three years in an American jail."There are extremely strong issues, both legal and factual, for the Court of Appeals to consider and to overrule the conviction and sentence," her defence lawyer, Bobbi Sternheim.
Her association with him would "permanently stain" her, she added, claiming she felt it was "the biggest regret of my life that I ever met him".
