King Charles to withdraw Prince Andrew's security funding over Jeffrey Epstein list

Image
King Charles is reportedly set to stop his brother's private security funding, forcing him out of his current residence after he was named in Jeffrey Epstein's court documents. The Duke of York has resided at the royal property on the grounds of Windsor Castle since 2004. He had signed a 75-year lease agreement ahead of moving into the estate, which belonged to the Queen Mother up until her death in 2002. The recent unsealing of documents linked to the paedophile sex trafficker has tarnished the image of Prince Andrew. However, a source told the Daily Mail that these current findings could “crystallize” the king's decision to solve the “Andrew problem.” “When it comes to any public role for his brother, there is no way back,” the insider told the outlet. “There has always been an agreement that Andrew would be permitted to attend private and family events, as is his right. But not public or official ones. That has not changed,” the source added.  Prince Andrew w...

Felon who attacked judge during sentencing now in solitary confinement

Image
Deobra Redden, the “ flying” felon who attacked a Vegas judge has now been hit with more charges and is now placed in solitary confinement.   Deobra Redden was moved to a solo cell following his violent outburst where he leapt over the bench at Judge Mary Kay Holthus earlier this week, punching her in the head and pulling her hair while court staffers rushed to her aid.   This occurred while he was in court for a previous conviction for attempted battery with substantial bodily harm. His attorney had asked Judge Holthus for parole, but she chose to sentence the 3-time felon instead which set him off and led to the attack.   Redden has been classified as a "2C" inmate, which is the most restrictive classification in the Clark County Jail.     This means Redden is solo in a cell, without any interactions with other inmates. He also eats alone, inside the cell and has very limited time outside.   Judge Holthus was unharmed but shaken up by the inci...
