Britain’s Prince Andrew was sued on Monday for having allegedly on three occasions sexually abused a woman who says she was trafficked for sex by the late financier Jeffrey Epstein.
In a civil complaint filed in the U.S. District Court in Manhattan, Virginia Giuffre said the Duke of York, Queen Elizabeth’s second son, sexually assaulted and battered her about two decades ago, when she was 17 and Epstein was also abusing her.
“I am holding Prince Andrew accountable for what he did to me,” Giuffre, previously known as Virginia Roberts, said in a statement.
“The powerful and rich are not exempt from being held responsible for their actions,” she added. “I hope that other victims will see that it is possible not to live in silence and fear, but to reclaim one’s life by speaking out and demanding justice.”
