Rep. Thomas Massie Urges Investigation Into Prince Andrew And Other Epstein Associates

Sen. Thomas Massie, a senior Republican from Kentucky, is calling for federal investigations into Prince Andrew and others he names as Sun Herald reports "co-conspirators" in Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking ring. Massie is also demanding the release of millions of withheld documents about the late financier, claiming the Trump administration is blocking public access to files that could expose additional wrongdoing.
Fresno Bee reports that Massie has singled out Prince Andrew as a priority for U.S. law enforcement. The congressman argues that the British royal figure should face investigation for alleged sex crimes committed on American soil. Massie lists Andrew among individuals he believes aided Epstein's trafficking operation.
British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell is already imprisoned in the U.S. after being convicted of recruiting young girls for Epstein's abuse, The Ledger-Enquirer reports. She received a 20-year prison sentence for her role in the trafficking scheme. Maxwell's conviction shows that some Epstein associates have faced criminal consequences, but Massie argues more must be done.
The News Tribune notes that millions of court documents related to the Epstein case remain sealed. Massie contends the Trump administration is withholding these files from public view. The congressman believes releasing these documents would reveal the full scope of the conspiracy and identify other individuals who may have participated in the crimes.
Belleville News-Democrat reports that both Prince Andrew's representatives and federal authorities have been contacted for response to Massie's allegations. Neither has yet provided a public statement on the congressman's investigation demands. The calls for inquiry add pressure on officials to address the outstanding questions surrounding Epstein's network and its members.
