In a stunning escalation of the Epstein saga, U.K. authorities have arrested Prince Andrew following new revelations tied to the Jeffrey Epstein files. While the current allegation centers on misconduct in public office, the arrest represents the most high-profile criminal action yet connected to Epstein’s global network. As Britain moves forward, the Live examines what this means for U.S. accountability—and whether mounting international pressure could force the release of additional unredacted files.
But the royal arrest wasn’t the only bombshell. New reporting from NPR details how Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwellallegedly used the prestigious Interlochen Center for the Arts as an early recruiting ground. According to Department of Justice records and victim accounts, Epstein leveraged donations—including access to a lodge near campus—to groom and target teenage girls.
Together, these stories expose a pattern: powerful institutions accepting elite money while predators operated in plain sight. As Europe advances prosecutions and new victims come forward, the question becomes unavoidable—will the United States continue to stall, or will global accountability force a reckoning at home?
