But the latest trove of Epstein files has heaped further scrutiny on the disgraced royal. Newly released images from the US DOJ appear to show Mountbatten-Windsor – formerly Prince Andrew – on the floor with an unidentified person. The latest Epstein documents also contain an email exchange between Epstein and Mountbatten-Windsor in August 2010, in which the financier invites the royal to meet a “friend” — whose name was redacted — for dinner in London. In one undated email, Epstein wrote to Mike Sitrick, chair of the crisis management firm Sitrick and Company, which was retained by Epstein’s law firm. Epstein replied: “I will wire your loan amount immediated’y (sic).”In April 2010, da Silva emailed Epstein again, sharing his bank details.
