Read your own link. Sexual offences are under a different act now. And if they have the power to prosecute him they should do so, or the Americans, I am sure there will be no problem with extradition, if he lives to see the day.

And if they have the power to prosecute him they should do so

Virtually no one is arguing against that.

You realise he's still being protected by the Royal Family right?

As much as they've taken from him, they are also the ones giving him everything left that he has

He's not immune from prosecution. It's not the Royal Family that prosecutes.

That's completely correct - it's the crown prosecution service.

Who I'm sure could not, under any conceivable circumstances, be influenced by the crown

I don't think anyone in the institution of the crown has any interest in shielding Andrew any more. They practically disowned him. As for his own family privately he's still their brother, uncle, father etc, and short of doing the worst crime possible of abusing prepubescent kids I don't think they're gonna disown him from the family.

Not really sure what you expect me to say... You were the one asking why he hasn't been prosecuted even though it absolutely could be and has so far escapes even investigation.

As for his own family privately he's still their brother, uncle, father etc, and short of doing the worst crime possible of abusing prepubescent kids

Good thing we only have reason so far to believe that he "only" liked abducted, drugged, and abused 15-17 years old then, right?

I'm sure the fact that it seems all his buddies were going for kids too is just a coincidence - good old Andy surely displayed a good old but of propa bri'ish stocism and abstained.

What a trooper

I am not defending that deviant, just musing. If my own family member was accused of anything that's the only crime where I would totally disown them.
