Maxwell trial told paedo's jet used by the prince

- CHRISTOPHER BUCKTIN

A WOMAN who claims Ghislaine Maxwell groomed her to be abused by paedophile Jeffrey Epstein took a flight with Prince Andrew, a court heard yesterday.

The alleged victim, known as “Jane”, was asked about the billionaire's private jet nicknamed the Lolita Express.

During cross-examination, attorney Laura Menninger said: “Do you remember Prince Andrew being on a flight with you?" Jane replied: “Yes” It is the first time an alleged victim who claims they witnessed the Duke of York, 61, on an Epstein flight has appeared before a jury.

Andrew has been under fire for his ties to the paedophile, who killed himself in August 2019 as he awaited trial for sex trafficking.
