Giuffre accused Epstein to trade him to Prince Andrew, who he claimed to take advantage and sexual harassment when he was under 18 years old.
Prince Andrew repeatedly denied the accusation and attacked the credibility and motive of Giuffre.
Giuffre filed a lawsuit against Prince Andrew in 2021, accusing the kingdom of competing sexually abused him at the Manhattan Epstein Mansion and elsewhere in 2001, when he was under 18 years old, according to a complaint.

Prince Andrew agreed to complete the lawsuit of sexual violence from Giuffre in 2022, without acknowledging mistakes.
In 2015, Giuffre also filed a civil lawsuit centered on the accusation that Epstein’s lover once, Ghislaine Maxwell, facilitated sexual harassment of Giuffre and others.
Hundreds of court submissions from the case were not sealed during the four -year period which began in 2019.
Morning after the first document set was not sealed by the Federal Appeals Court in 2019, Epstein died by hanging in a prison cell in Manhattan, where he was detained waiting for trial on charges of sex trading and conspiracy of children. New York’s medical examiner decided the death as suicide and report on the General Inspector of the Department of Justice agreed with that determination.

Maxwell was sentenced to 2021 over five of the six charges related to harassment and trafficking of underage girls and sentenced to 20 years in prison.
Giuffre was not called as a witness during Maxwell’s trial, and Maxwell consistently denied all mistakes.
Maxwell appealed to his belief in the Supreme Court earlier this month, but the Supreme Court had not yet taken any action.
