Prince Andrew stripped of royal patronages and military affiliations
as sex abuse lawsuit moves ahead
CBS News
=============================

I wonder if Andrew has much money....if not, the "big payoff" in that
lawsuit just hit rock bottom. Greedy little bitch...imho.

I think that's the wrong way to look at this trial. Rape is about
exerting control. I believe this is about exerting control back.

But: Even if she were solely motivated by lucre, this could be the easy
case to win and humilate someone before settling out of court with the
other multimillionaires Epstein flew around.

One interesting line of questions I have is: if the Crown is doing this
to protect the family fortune, is it real? Does Andrew get reaccepted if
he wins the case?

Last I knew, the "win" money will not be given to charity.


PS: Just another chapter in The Bonfire of the Vanities

I have not followed all details, but I believe she was paid very well
for her services.

PS: I'm not in favor of this behavior, but getting 'banged' for the
dollar, at a younger age is nothing new under the Sun. It has and is
happening in various countries where a teen female is the solicitant.

And she is smiling in the photo of them together... so hardly a woman
coerced against her will.

I would suspect legal advice was involved...Family's name would be
involved...

Andrew is attempting to sell his "home" in the Alps currently...some
17 million or so. Needless to say, whatever legal means are possible
to shield assets, they will be used. His defense will not be cheap,
and lawyers get paid first.

This announcement also lets her lawyers know their quest may not be a
juicy as thought.

I wonder what the situation would be with the next heir, if it were
Prince Philip involved in this scandal, instead of his brother. Would
he be stripped of the right to the throne upon the passing of the Queen?

I also wonder how embarrassed the Queen is of her offspring in recent
years. I predict that the monarchy and royal family will basically fall
apart after her passing. It seems that the traditionalists are mostly
passed.

I meant to say Prince Charles, sorry.
