King Charles has released his first public statement regarding Andrew’s arrest. He said:
I have learned with the deepest concern the news about Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and suspicion of misconduct in public office. What now follows is the full, fair and proper process by which this issue is investigated in the appropriate manner and by the appropriate authorities. In this, as I have said before, they have our full and wholehearted support and co-operation.
Let me state clearly: the law must take its course.
As this process continues, it would not be right for me to comment further on this matter. Meanwhile, my family and I will continue in our duty and service to you all. Charles R.
The official release from Royal Communications:
BBC News has learned that the Prince and Princess of Wales support King Charles’s statement regarding the arrest of Andrew.
The optics here are not favorable for the Royal Family.
BBC Newsreportedthat Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly known as Prince Andrew, was arrested early Thursday morning on suspicion of misconduct in public office, amid allegations heshared confidential government trade documents with the late Jeffrey Epstein. The Epstein fallout continues to spread by the day, rattling not just governments but also the corporate world.
Six unmarked police cars arrived at Wood Farm, Andrew’s new residence on King Charles’ Sandringham estate in Norfolk, eastern England, shortly after 0800 local time.
