    South Park had an episode about 20 years ago about a super adventure club where “explorers” would travel the world to rape kids. I had no idea it was inspired from reality

  2. *In one message sent in August 2001, The Invisible Man, signing off the email “A”, asks Maxwell if she had found him some “inappropriate friends”.* 

    *“I am up here at Balmoral Summer Camp for the Royal Family,” the message reads. “Activities take place all day and I am totally exhausted at the end of each day. The Girls are completely shattered and I will have to give them an early night today as it is getting tiring splitting them up all the time! How’s LA? Have you found me some new inappropriate friends?”* 

    That is fucking chilling to read. 

    It can only have one interpretation. 

    Sick

    “The emails do not indicate any wrongdoing”, given it’s an exchange between someone asking for “inappropriate friends” from a known sex trafficker of minors I’d argue they do actually indicate wrongdoing, hence why there’s an article about the emails, they just don’t conclusively prove it.

  4. For privacy’s sake, let’s call him Andrew M.-W. No, that’s too obvious. Uh, let’s say A. Mountbatten-Windsor.

    So the email name is just A@Balmoral sounds like a desperate plea for something Andrew swears blind he never did.

    A bit of a side topic but I haven’t seen any posts about it. I can understand Bill Clinton saying many people involved with Epstein were just involved with him in a business sense which is true but how can he explain why he has a young girl sitting on his lap in one photo? Is that really business?

    And why is Trump sticking up for Bill and defending him?

  7. The police and state continue to protect this man. Because he the son of our late Queen. It disgusting

  8. Mad how this guy was 2nd in line to the throne at one point. Imagine if Charles fell down the stairs in 1980

  9. I’m putting my tinfoil hat on here

    Isn’t it a bit odd that a privately educated member of the Royal family would use so many Americanisms in emails. ‘Gratefully’ and ‘fall’.

    Whilst there is no doubt he’s a nonce. This particular email does seem fabricated to distract from the orange.

    That email wasn’t written by a Brit. We don’t call autumn “the fall”.

    The nonce formally known as the Duke of York is a predator and should be in prison. That email is creepy af, but I don’t think that’s from him. Whoever did write it needs to be arrested and jailed.

    BBC already doing damage control by telling you in the sub heading that the emails don’t indicate anything inappropriate.

    Maybe let the public decide? They’re doing this all on purpose. Drip feeding us bullshit and gaslighting us until we are all done and bored of it all.
