Prince Andrew Called Uncooperative in Jeffrey Epstein Probe

Associated Press

   NEW YORK - Britain's Prince Andrew has provided "zero cooperation" to
   the American investigators who want to interview him as part of their
   sex trafficking probe into Jeffrey Epstein, a U.S. prosecutor said
   Monday.

   Speaking at a news conference outside Epstein's New York mansion, U.S.
   Attorney Geoffrey Berman said prosecutors and the FBI had contacted
   Andrew's lawyers and asked to interview him.

   "To date, Prince Andrew has provided zero cooperation," said Berman,
   the top federal prosecutor in Manhattan.

   The Associated Press has asked Buckingham Palace for comment.

   Andrew announced last year that he was withdrawing from his royal
   duties amid renewed public attention on a woman's claim that she had
   several sexual encounters with the prince at Epstein's behest, starting
   when she was 17.
