Democrats on the House Oversight Committee are calling on former prince Andrew Mountbatten Windsor to sit for an interview as part of their probe into deceased sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. “The Committee is seeking to uncover the identities of Mr. Epstein’s co-conspirators and enablers and to understand the full extent of his criminal operations,” the lawmakers, led by Oversight ranking member Rep. Robert Garcia (D-Calif.), wrote. “Well-documented allegations against you, along with your long-standing friendship with Mr. Epstein, indicate that you may possess knowledge of his activities relevant to our investigation.” Formerly known as Prince Andrew, Windsor was in 2019 accused of sexually assaulting Virginia Giuffre, one of Epstein’s accusers who was 17 years old at the time of the alleged abuse, and has faced backlash for his friendship with the disgraced financier, who died by suicide in a New York jail cell six years ago. Last week, Windsor was stripped of his royal title — and ordered to vacate the palatial mansion that had long been his home — by his brother, King Charles, suggesting it was over his ties to Epstein. Democrats, including Reps. Suhas Subramanyam (D-Va.) and Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-Ill.) have continued to call for Windsor to speak before Congress “In response to a subpoena issued to the Epstein estate, the Committee has identified financial records containing notations such as “massage for Andrew” that raise serious questions regarding the nature of your relationship with Mr. Epstein and related financial transactions,” the lawmakers wrote. House Democrats lack subpoena power. Windsor, a British citizen, cannot be legally required to testify. The committee asked Windsor to respond by Nov. 20. Both his office and Buckingham Palace did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
