Police probe into Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor could include sexual misconduct claims

Thames Valley Police said its ongoing misconduct-in-public-office investigation into Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor could include sexual misconduct allegations, following a claim that a woman was taken to a Windsor address for sexual purposes in 2010. Mountbatten-Windsor denies all wrongdoing and was arrested in February; police say they are examining multiple aspects of alleged misconduct and will pursue any reported information with care while considering related Epstein-era documents.

Lownie’s Bombshell: Fergie-Diddy Ties, Rehab Retreat, and a Royal Security Wake-Up

Andrew Lownie’s paperback edition of Entitled alleges Sarah Ferguson had a long-running “friends with benefits” relationship with Sean “Diddy” Combs, including high-priced hotel rooms and Eugenie allegedly being taken to a yacht party at age 16; with Combs now serving a prison sentence for prostitution-related charges, Lownie stands by the claims amid denials from Ferguson associates. The piece also covers Ferguson’s alleged stay at Paracelsus Recovery in Zurich, chatter about cloning the late Queen’s corgis for TV, and a separate security scare near Marsh Farm that intensified debates over Prince Harry’s security and royal protection in the face of ongoing Epstein-related scrutiny.

Judge releases Epstein suicide note, reviving doubts about his death

A US federal judge released a handwritten suicide note purportedly written by Jeffrey Epstein, allegedly found by his former cellmate during a 2019 suicide attempt, in which Epstein hints at ending his life amid a probe. The New York City medical examiner ruled Epstein’s death a suicide by hanging in a Manhattan jail, though conspiracies persist. The disclosure comes as DOJ document releases reveal Epstein’s ties to powerful figures, fueling political controversy in the US ahead of midterm elections.

Court unseals alleged Epstein suicide note; authorship remains unverified

A federal judge has unsealed an alleged suicide note attributed to Jeffrey Epstein, reportedly found by his cellmate after Epstein’s 2019 suicide attempt at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in NYC. The unsigned note contains a frustrated remark about investigations and a goodbye, but its authorship has not been independently verified, and the release followed a New York Times report, with no immediate DOJ comment.

Lutnick acknowledges lingering ties to Epstein in closed-door hearing

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick admitted visiting Jeffrey Epstein’s island several years after saying he cut ties, calling the visit “inexplicable.” Democrats labeled him evasive and signaled they may seek more questioning, potentially in public or sworn form, while the interview was transcribed rather than videotaped. No wrongdoing is alleged, but the exchange raises credibility questions as lawmakers press for full disclosure in the Epstein probe.

Lutnick to Brief House Panel on Epstein Ties in Closed Interview

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick will testify behind closed doors before the House Oversight and Reform Committee about his past ties to Jeffrey Epstein, in a session tied to a broader Epstein investigation after the DOJ released files showing Lutnick maintained contact post-2008. Lutnick previously said he cut ties in 2005, but records also show Epstein-related scheduling and a 2012 island visit. The hearing aims to address lawmakers’ questions; a transcript will be released later. Lutnick has not been accused of wrongdoing, though some Republicans have pressed for accountability and even resignation, while the White House has voiced support for him.”

Bard College President Botstein to Retire After Epstein Ties Scrutiny

Bard College President Leon Botstein will retire at the end of June after a WilmerHale review found that his Epstein-era fundraising raised questions about leadership and donor vetting, though the report said nothing illegal occurred. The findings show Botstein cultivated Epstein as a donor, visited his properties, and didn’t fully disclose Epstein-linked funds to Bard’s board. Bard will strengthen donor-vetting procedures and redirect Epstein-related funds to organizations supporting sexual-harm survivors, while Botstein will remain involved with Bard’s programs through retirement.
