00:00The new Epstein files drop is sending shockwaves across the
00:29internet, and once again, Prince Andrew is right at the center of it.
00:34Newly released photographs, explosive emails, and millions of pages of documents are raising
00:40fresh questions that refuse to go away.
00:44In the latest batch of Epstein-related documents, disturbing photographs have surfaced that appear
00:50to show a man believed to be Prince Andrew crouched over a woman lying on the floor.
00:56In some images, he's barefoot, wearing jeans and a white polo shirt, staring directly into
01:01the camera.
01:03Another unidentified person sits nearby in a leopard-print chair.
01:07As with much of this material, there's no clear date, location, or context, and authorities
01:13say extensive redactions remain in place to protect victims and ongoing investigations.
01:20Faces of women have been blurred, except for Ghislaine Maxwell.
01:24Women's faces, however, have not.
01:26This follows another recent release showing Prince Andrew lying across the laps of several
01:32women at Sandingham, adding to a growing pile of deeply uncomfortable imagery tied to his
01:38name.
01:39But it's not just the photos.
01:41Newly revealed emails show Prince Andrew inviting Jeffrey Epstein to dinner at Buckingham Palace
01:47in 2010, just days after Epstein was released from house arrest for soliciting a minor.
01:54Epstein asked for private time.
01:57Andrew replied, we could have dinner at Buckingham Palace and lots of privacy.
02:02The emails continue, casually discussing schedules, lunches with foreign princes, and Epstein visiting
02:08the palace with whomever.
02:11All of this happened during Epstein's first trips outside the US after serving time for
02:16sex crimes.
02:18In other exchanges, Epstein offered to introduce Andrew to young women, while Ghislaine Maxwell
02:23joked about women being left behind when Andrew chose family time over visiting the island.
02:30More than three million documents were released in this latest dump by the US Department of Justice.
02:36People say sensitive material, including child abuse content and victim identities, has been
02:42removed.
02:43Prince Andrew and others named, including President Trump, have denied wrongdoing.
02:48Still, critics say these new disclosures make Andrew's infamous 2019 Newsnight interview
02:54look even harder to defend.
02:57No charges have been announced, but the reputational damage continues to deepen.
03:02And with millions more documents now public, this story may be far from over.
