The New York Post (3/11, Brown, 4.57M) reports, Prince Andrew has hired a crisis management spedalist dubbed the backroom fixer' — after snubbing the FBI on the advice of Jeffrey Epstein's accused madam Ghislaine Maxwell, according to reports." The prince "was on Monday once again shamed by US authorities who say he 'completely shut the door on voluntary cooperation' with the investigation into his late pedophile pal's crimes," and "now a family friend of Maxwell's claims Andrew was 'persuaded' to do so at her urging. 'Ghislaine told me that yes, the la ers and Ghislaine have finally convinced Andrew that it would do no good for him to talk to the FBI,' Maxwell friend told The Sun. 'He wanted to talk to them because he has nothing to hide,' Goldman said of the 'honorable' 60-year-old royal. 'But it was Ghislaine who persuaded him that it didn't matter. The FBI will never be satisfied."' EFTA00161145 EFTA00161146 EFTA00161147 EFTA00161148 EFTA00161149
