PRINCE Andrew “does have knowledge” of Jeffrey Epstein’s sex crimes, a witness list has claimed – as a second batch of documents were unsealed.
Andrew is named in a list of potential witnesses in a list filed by Virginia Giuffre, one of Epstein’s victims.
Giuffre’s counsel submitted the list as part of her defamation suit against Ghislaine Maxwell and it appears in Exhibit 13, page 7.
The listing for Andrew claims that he “has knowledge of Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein’s trafficking conduct and interaction with underage minors, including Virginia Giuffre”.
Andrew denies all allegations of wrongdoing.
A total of 300 more pages of documents dropped tonight.

Among the documents was a chilling testimony from a Jane Doe, who told how “something horrible” happened to her at Epstein’s house in exhibit 3 page 3.
She added that “Jeffrey took my clothes off without my consent the first time I met him” – and that she was intimidated by people working for Epstein after going to the police.
She also claimed Epstein asked her to live with him and that he wanted her “to be emancipated”.

The bulk of Wednesday’s papers saw Maxwell claim a journalist helped Ms Giuffre “concoct” sexual assault allegations against Prince Andrew.
In one document from 2016 – titled Response to Non-Party Sharon Chrucher’s Motion to Quash Subpena – Maxwell’s lawyers made submissions that journalist Churcher should be compelled to give evidence as part of the case.
Ms Churcher was helping Ms Giuffre write her book.
The socialite’s legal team claimed Ms Churcher was “aware” the allegations made by Ms Giuffre against Prince Andrew were “false” and said she “helped manufacture some of the stories that have been denied”.
The document showed that Maxwell’s legal team accused Ms Churcher, who was working for the Mail on Sunday, of explaining to Ms Giuffre “how she can corroborate a story to tell the FBI – that she was ‘given to’ Prince Andrew”.
Her legal team also alleged that a handwritten diary by Ms Giuffre, which contained information about her alleged encounter with Andrew, was a “completely fabricated document”.
And in an email from Guiffre to Churcher dated May 2011, the former claims ex-President Bill Clinton once “walked into Vanity Fair and threatened them not to write sex-trafficking articles about his good friend Jeffrey Epstein”.
In Tuesday’s documents, Donald Trump, Michael Jackson, Cate Blanchett and Leonardo DiCaprio were among the high-profile names revealed.
An order for the bombshell files to be released was given by New York judge Loretta Preska in relation to the 2015 defamation case brought by Virginia Roberts Giuffre against Ghislaine Maxwell.
More than 100 people are named in the new files, which include emails, legal documents and depositions.
There is no suggestion many of those named are accused of any wrongdoing.
Among the allegations made in the documents is the claim that Prince Andrew allegedly had an “underage orgy” while staying on Epstein’s private island.
Andrew is mentioned 69 times in the court papers naming Epstein‘s associates.
An unnamed Jane Doe – widely understood to be his accuser Virginia Giuffre – was allegedly “forced” by convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein to “have sexual relations” with the Duke of York.
She was allegedly told to “give the Prince whatever he demanded”.
It is also claimed that one of Prince Andrew’s accusers was sat in his lap “like Santa” as he groped her at Epstein’s mansion.
