Call this crime what it actually is…rape and terrorizing children by powerful men.
Prince Andrew should stand trial, just like anyone else who has committed crimes.
I'm a survivor of childhood sexual abuse and I can tell you with authority it NEVER leaves you, it haunts you forever. My heart goes out to all the victims... *Edit - Although it haunts you forever, that is not to say you can't move on with your life and be happy. I have found support groups to be very helpful but just try and find what kind of support works for you personally.
It’s not a „family” problem! It’s a criminal problem
It is ridiculous that a title such as duke or prince can purportedly protect an idiot. What a crazy sad society.
These men (and one woman) should be persued relentlesly with the full force of the law, regardless of who they are, and, if found guilty, jailed to the maximum term allowed.
Stop sugar coating and stop treating him like a special person and put him in jail !
Thank goodness the family published Virginia’s book posthumously. So sad she isn’t here to experience the impact. RIP sweetheart.
He needs to face a jury, like any other accused sex offender. Why should he get any special treatment?
Removing his title only accomplishes something for the Monarchy. It does NOTHING for the public, but in particular it does NOTHING for the survivors. He needs to speak to the police.
