Virginia Giuffre, Jeffrey Epstein secret deal made public amid Prince Andrew sexual abuse lawsuit

Bombshells in the Jeffrey Epstein case continue to surface with new details on a secret 2009 settlement between the billionaire and Virginia Guiffre revealed

A $694,637 settlement between Jeffrey Epstein and Virginia Guiffre has been unsealed, as part of Ms Giuffre’s civil lawsuit against Britain’s Prince Andrew, who claims the deal shields him from any liability.

Guiffre claims she was sexually abused by Epstein, Maxwell and Prince Andrew.

According to documents the settlement agreement to in 2009 meant that Guiffre agreed to not sue anyone connected to Mr Epstein who could be described as a “potential defendant”

That document, disclosed by a New York court, reveals the financier paid her half a million dollars to end her claim.

Giuffre is suing Prince Andrew the Duke of York in a civil case for allegedly sexually assaulting her 20 years ago, when she was a teenager.

The Prince has always denied the claims.
