Of all the Epstein-related arrests we wanted to see, one of the more improbable has just happened:
Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has been arrested on his 66th birthday today and is in police custody after a raid on his new Sandringham home. Thames Valley Police held the eighth in line to the British throne on suspicion of misconduct in public office this morning. The Daily Mail was the first to reveal plain-clothes police, carried in six unmarked vehicles, had arrived at Wood Farm, Andrew’s new Sandringham home, at 8am this morning.
A convoy including at least two royal Land Rovers linked to Andrew was photographed leaving the estate less than an hour later. His arrest was confirmed at 10.08am.
For the past ten days detectives have been probing his conduct as a trade envoy for the UK after emails in the Epstein Files suggested he shared confidential information with his paedophile friend including reports of his official visits and potential investment opportunities.
Sure, there is plenty of reason to suspect that either the prosecutors will whitewash everything he’ll “commit suicide” in prison and be spirited off somewhere in the Middle East, but it is nevertheless a start.
Now do Hillary Clinton and Bill Gates…
