Prince Andrew arrested
British police have arrested Prince Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor following weeks of renewed scrutiny over his past friendship and dealings with Jeffrey Epstein. 66 year old Prince Andrew was detained on suspicion of misconduct in public office, an offense that carries a maximum sentence of life imprisonment in the UK.
