Overview
- The latest DOJ tranche includes emails signed "A" or "The Invisible Man" to Ghislaine Maxwell that reference Balmoral, leaving the Royal Navy, a long‑serving valet’s death, and the line "Have you found me some new inappropriate friends?"
- A Maxwell email about a March 2002 Peru visit for "Andrew" requested "two‑legged sightseeing" with "intelligent pretty fun" girls and strict discretion, with reporting noting Andrew’s official trip that month and no allegation of illegal conduct in the messages.
- Email addresses linked to the alias appear in Epstein’s contacts, with one listed under "Duke of York," a detail cited by multiple outlets in identifying the sender.
- A formal DOJ request dated April 3, 2020 asked UK authorities to arrange an interview about Epstein and Peter Nygard, stating Andrew was not a target and that U.S. investigators had not gathered evidence he committed a U.S. crime.
- Surrey police plan to ask the FBI for information on unproven UK abuse‑party claims, survivors have urged questioning in the United States, and the Metropolitan Police recently declined to open a new criminal investigation.
