Andrew and social services

I don’t think social services would become involved because an adult had consensual sex with someone over the age of consent.

He’s gross, but there’s nothing to suggest he’s a paedophile and a risk to children.

I don't like the guy and I think he has a lot of questions to answer, and I would like to see him answer them.

But at the moment it's all speculation and hearsay.

At the moment he is not a convicted rapist or paedophile. Whether this remains the case over the coming months/years remains to be seen.

I think the 15k (first payment) for the abuse of a minor was a gift from Epstein.

Andrew - and particularly Sarah - were Grifters of the highest order, especially from Epstein's pocket.

Agreed - the reported meeting with Andrew was in March 2001 so this would have made Virginia 17.5 and in the UK over 16 and the age of consent. The age of consent varies throughout the world and even in different us states. Shockingly it can be 12 or 13 in some places.
So not a paedophile but an unpleasant character being heavily involved with people who would exploit vulnerable teenagers

The minimising is desperate. He has been all over the news because he is a rapist, was friends with sex traffickers and lied about it all.

We really really don't need any more threads about Andrew.

For one is daughters are adults.
While what he has done is disgraceful there is a big difference between pedophiles and what Andrew did.
Pedophiles go after children under the age of 13 and usually have an age preference.

Andrew is a predator and even if he was in an ordinary family child services would not be involved, as again is girls are adults and since no charges have ever been laid its a he said she said situation. So they can’t be involved.

I think in an ordinary family someone once paying for sex with someone of legal age it would barely even be noticed. Andrew has been all over the news because he’s a royal; on this particular occasion his standing in society has worked against him.
