The United Kingdom — Metropolitan Police has announced it will not launch a criminal investigation into claims that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor asked his taxpayer-funded bodyguard to investigate Virginia Giuffre in 2011. This decision follows a further assessment of recent reports, which suggested Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor provided Virginia Giuffre's date of birth and social security number to his protection officer for a smear campaign. The United Kingdom — Metropolitan Police stated that the assessment did not reveal any additional evidence of criminal acts or misconduct. This decision comes after previous allegations in 2015 concerning trafficking for sexual exploitation involving Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, which also involved Virginia Giuffre, did not result in criminal conduct charges against any UK-based nationals. The United Kingdom — Metropolitan Police had previously decided in 2016 not to proceed with a full criminal investigation into those matters, a decision that was reviewed multiple times.
