Andrew’s Lawyers ‘In Emergency Talks’ Amid Fears Maxwell Could ‘Name Names’

PRINCE Andrew’s lawyers were locked in emergency talks last night amid fears his pal Ghislaine Maxwell could “name names” following her guilty verdict, a report says.

Maxwell now faces up to 65 years in prison after a New York court found she procured, groomed and trafficked young girls for her ex-lover Jeffrey Epstein.

Epstein survivor Virginia Roberts Guiffre has launched a civil case against the Duke of York – who she alleges had sex with her when she was a teenage sex slave.

Andrew strongly denies the claims and all allegations of misconduct made against him.

The jury’s verdict to convict Maxwell has sparked alarm in the Prince’s legal team because the burden of proof in a criminal case is far higher than in a civil case, the Mirror reports.

Legal experts reportedly point to OJ Simpson who was acquitted in criminal court but was found guilty of double murder in a civil case.

Meanwhile, it has been claimed Maxwell could start “naming names” in a bid to cut her lengthy prison sentence.

The socialite, 60, and Andrew, 61, are believed to have known each other for the better part of two decades and she is alleged to have introduced him to Jeffrey Epstein.
