Beskrivelse

Former U.S. Virgin Islands Governor John de Jongh Jr. has filed a memorandum in federal court seeking to dismiss, transfer, or strike the lawsuit brought by five anonymous women identified as Jane Does 1-5, who accuse the Virgin Islands government and several current and former officials of enabling Jeffrey Epstein’s trafficking network. De Jongh argues that the Southern District of New York lacks jurisdiction, asserting he has been a resident of the U.S. Virgin Islands for decades and has no substantial ties to New York that would justify the case being heard there. He also claims he was improperly served at a Manhattan address where he says he does not reside or maintain control, insisting the lawsuit should be dismissed or moved to the Virgin Islands, where the alleged conduct occurred. The memorandum further contends that even if the court finds jurisdiction proper, the claims against De Jongh should still be thrown out because they are barred by prior settlement releases signed by Epstein’s victims as part of earlier agreements with his estate. He argues that the complaint fails to allege specific wrongful acts committed by him and maintains that any actions connected to Epstein occurred while he was serving in his official capacity, which he says grants him legal immunity. De Jongh also asks the court to strike portions of the complaint as irrelevant and prejudicial, describing them as inflammatory rather than grounded in fact. The filing adds another layer to the expanding legal fight over what government officials knew— and failed to stop—while Epstein operated in the Virgin Islands. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Mega Edition: Prince Andrew And The Chaos He Caused For His Parents (6/5/26)

Prince Andrew’s Epstein disgrace reportedly created a deep strain inside the royal family because Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip appeared to respond to the crisis from very different emotional positions. The Queen was widely portrayed as a mother who, despite the public humiliation and institutional damage, remained personally protective of Andrew for as long as she could. She allowed him to retain certain symbols of status for years after the Epstein scandal had already become a public catastrophe, and even after his disastrous 2019 BBC interview forced him to step back from public duties. Prince Philip, by contrast, was often described as far less sentimental about the damage Andrew had done to the monarchy, viewing the scandal as a disgrace that threatened the dignity, discipline, and public standing of the Crown. That difference reportedly produced a rift because Andrew was not merely dealing with a private embarrassment; he had dragged the monarchy into the orbit of Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, Virginia Giuffre’s allegations, federal scrutiny, and public outrage over elite impunity. For Philip, the scandal represented the kind of self-inflicted humiliation that the royal family could not afford, especially because Andrew’s explanations made the situation worse rather than better. For the Queen, the issue was more complicated because Andrew was still her son, and that maternal loyalty seemed to clash with the cold institutional reality that he had become a liability. In the end, the Epstein revelations exposed not only Andrew’s judgment, but also the painful divide between family loyalty and the survival instincts of the monarchy itself. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
