Jeffrey Epstein Was Already Convicted—So Why Did Prince Andrew’s Security Team Miss It? (4/24/26)

A former royal protection officer claims that Prince Andrew’s security team did not know about Jeffrey Epstein’s prior sex offense conviction when Andrew visited him in New York in 2010. The conviction was allegedly viewed as a localized U.S. matter rather than something that would automatically be flagged to British protection services. This visit occurred shortly after Epstein had served time for soliciting sex from a minor, and it was during that trip that Andrew was photographed walking with Epstein in Central Park—an image that would later become emblematic of the scandal.

The explanation has done little to quiet the broader backlash surrounding Andrew’s continued association with Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. His decision to maintain contact with Epstein after his conviction remains one of the most scrutinized aspects of his conduct, reinforcing questions about judgment, awareness, and accountability. The controversy continues to linger, with critics arguing that the circumstances stretch credibility and highlight deeper failures in how such associations were handled at the highest levels.
