An American woman who accused the convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein of sex crimes has revealed new details of the night she says she was forced to perform sex acts with Britain's Prince Andrew
In her first UK interview, Virginia Giuffre -- previously known as Virginia Roberts -- told the BBC's Panorama that when she was 17 years old she was trafficked by Epstein and forced to have sex with his friends, including the Duke of York. Giuffre also accused the prince, who has repeatedly denied the allegations, of lying about their encounter and urged the British public to back her over Andrew. "I'm calling BS on this, because that's what it is," she said.

"People on the inside are going to keep coming up with these ridiculous excuses like his arm was elongated or the photo was doctored," she said. In a 2015 federal court filing, Giuffre alleged Epstein forced her to perform sex acts with several prominent men, including Prince Andrew in 2001. All of the men denied the allegations.
