Prince Andrew hires ‘formidable’ lawyer amid FBI probe into Jeffrey Epstein links
Prince Andrew has hired Britain’s “most formidable” extradition lawyer to protect him against an FBI inquiry into his late pedophile pal Jeffrey Epstein, according to reports.
The Duke of York was publicly slammed by US authorities in January for repeatedly failing to cooperate with the ongoing investigation into Epstein’s alleged sex trafficking ring.
He is still so worried about being forced to talk, he is now hiring an “eminent team of lawyers” to “fend off” the FBI, according to the Daily Telegraph.
The 60-year-old royal’s legal team is led by Clare Montgomery, one of the UK’s leading extradition lawyers who has represented world leaders, including former dictator Augusto Pinochet, the Telegraph says.
