The FBI’s investigation into Prince Andrew and his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein has been paused as officers wait for new evidence.
US police have ‘parked’ their investigation until ‘new evidence is presented that can move the case forward’.
A source told The Mirror: ‘The agents and attorneys who have, for years, worked diligently looking into Andrew’s friendship with Epstein are beyond frustrated.
‘They’re angry that the probe has been parked.’
The source added it has been some time since new evidence has been presented to investigators, meaning the case has become stalled.
FBI agents are now devoting more time to other high-profile rapists including Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs.
But one survivor is claiming the decision is the final ‘systematic cover-up’.
They said: ‘From the very beginning, we have been denied our voices, brushed under the carpet and told to be quiet.
‘The government always says that no one is above the law, but we all know that is untrue.’
Prince Andrew visited New York in 2011 after Epstein was released from jail for child sex offences.
Epstein killed himself in 2019 while awaiting trial, and his friend Ghislaine Maxwell is serving 20 years in jail for sex trafficking.
King Charles is reportedly weighing up his options after becoming increasingly frustrated with brother Prince Andrew’s refusal to leave the Royal Lodge.
Prince Andrew, 64, is still squatting in the £30 million royal mansion despite being told to leave nearly five years ago.
The disgraced Prince’s state security was removed following a home office review and he is now being guarded by a £3 million a year private security team funded by the King’s own wealth.
He also receives a generous living allowance also provided to him by Charles.
