So what do we think will happen to Andrew, could he actually go to prison?

I just don’t believe it could happen. Also I’d like him to go to prison for the sex offences, that seems more important than his sharing confidential information problem.

Your such a disgrace.

if anyone had sons involved in half the things he has been involved in we would be severely wary. Disown, report them.

Oh do get a grip

Then all the evidence will be presented in a trial where he can defend himself - as he's entitled to - and her testimonials will be heard.

But there are, of course, details.

Was she consenting
Could she consent
Was she raped
Why did she go on to provide other young girls

Are you for real?! Of course she can't testify. The poor woman killed herself because of her prolonged trauma.

Oh, and just so we're clear – victims of sex trafficking cannot consent. End of.

You are an appalling apologist.

I think the royal family were given some warning his arrest would occur - him being thrown out of his home so close to his arrest, and Fergie nowhere to be seen - apparently overseas? And Charles very clear statement washing his hands of Andrew. Perhaps even Andrew's titles removed so he didn't have any Royal protection under the law (is that a thing?)

The Palace have said he’s on his own as he’s not a working royal. Apparently the Home Office had 30 minutes’ warning of this morning’s raid.

I have a feeling BMW (coincidentally "MW") is a troll, or huge delusional Andrew MW supporter. Hopefully mumsnet will be along soon.

Yes, I'm definitely getting a whiff of rage-baiting.

How do you know?

Most people would disown their sons, brothers, partners, etc for similar behaviour.

Can’t really come on here with “not my Nigel” when it literally is your Nigel.

I very much doubt she killed herself over her sexual encounter with AMW. Nor because of prolonged trauma. She was obviously a very troubled person and was no stranger to lying to get dosh. I don't know - neither do you.

As for your "end of" re consent to sex and trafficked I suggest you read upthread for accuracy in regards to Law.

I don’t think even she’d defend him.

I don’t often assume MNers are men because they’re disagreeable, but I don’t see how any woman can have the questions “did she consent, was she raped or was she complicit” about VG.

I just find it completely implausible that any woman could have that attitude.

Yep. If anyone believes she had a non-fatal car accident and then promptly killed herself, I’ve got a tunnel in Paris to sell them.

"According to sources, Princess Eugenie is keeping her distance from her disgraced father, while Princess Beatrice continues to keep in contact."

I hope this wouldn't extend to defending him.

I agree, I cannot understand how any woman could ignorantly ask those questions.

I wonder what trauma might have led to her being a very troubled person?
