UK government will agree to his extradition to anywhere.

IIRC we have signed an extradition treaty with the US that means anyone they ask for we have to send

The UK courts have already ruled that diplomatic immunity would be sufficient legal basis to refuse a request, so there's no question of that.

Requests have to go through the US State Department rather than come directly from prosecuting authorities, so I can't see one ever being made for the son of the Queen of England!

The Americans should light a fire and offer up Anne Sacoolas in return

I reckon in they chuck in one of the smaller states - Delaware, or maybe Rhode Island, that would be a sweet enough deal to tempt Her Maj.

Does Randy Andy have diplomatic immunity?

He was some kind of nominal Trade Envoy/International Golf Course Inspector at the time, I do believe. Plus he's a member of the British Royal Family, which would push an extradition request into 'diplomatic incident' territory.

If it turns out they do have enough information to charge him with something serious, they should just do it for a laugh.

Another possibility is that he will be offered a presidential pardon in exchange for full cooperation, on condition that his testimony is sealed. Once someone is pardoned, they no longer have the right to not testify on the grounds of self-incrimination (because they can't be prosecuted), so they must offer truthful testimony or face a charge of perjury. I also assume that he will not be setting foot outside of Britain for the rest of his life just in case some judge somewhere issues a secret warrant for his arrest.

If she’d headed off abroad in the face of an active investigation, she would be returned via extradition at some point, then potentially classed as a flight risk and incarcerated rather than allowed out under house arrest.

She's in a cell and deemed a flight risk:

U.S. Magistrate Judge Andrea Johnstone ordered Maxwell to remain in custody at a brief hearing via videoconference in federal court in New Hampshire, where another of her attorneys, Lawrence Vogelman, did not seek an immediate bail hearing because her lawyers plan to make those arguments after she is transferred to New York.

In a court filing, prosecutors said Maxwell should stay behind bars pending trial because she might flee given her “extensive international ties,” noting she has citizenship in two countries and three passports in her name. Maxwell, 58, faces the possibility of 35 years in prison if convicted and has “absolutely no reason to stay in the United States,” prosecutors argued in the filing.

58! Dear God, I met her when she was 16. Now i feel old.

She’s in a cell and deemed a flight risk:

Certainly at the moment, no lower court judge is going to set bail on such a high profile out of area case - but they can make a much stronger argument for pre-trial house arrest once she gets to a NY court. No attempt to flee the country, when she had the means and opportunity.

I met her when she was 16. Now i feel old.

I worked at Pergamon Press in the early 70's. Met Maxwell on a regular basis. At one point for a year Kevin and Ian Maxwell worked at desks next to mine. After I left there a designer I freelanced for had the job of redesigning Ghislane's bedroom at Headington Hill Hall and I got slightly involved.
Maxwell was a thoroughly evil person. When his death was announced the publisher of Windsurf mag and I had just arrived in Egypt for a winter test trip. We both heard the news on the World Service and both ran into the corridor to tell the other (he was ex BBC Radio Oxford and had to interview Maxwell far too often).
I'd taken a bottle of brandy with me and that would normally last two weeks of the test. We finished it in about 2 hours celebrating.

If you go down the rabbit hole far enough this all started way back with Maxwell allegedly being a spy for mossad

I'm not sure the alleged things he was up to count as part of his diplomatic duties...

I don’t understand why she stayed in the US. This story wasn’t going to go away and staying there assures her capture/being found.

I'm just assuming she thought she was protected tbh.

From what I have seen of the American media, they are making a much bigger deal of links to the Clintons and barely a mention of Trump.

Eric Trump tweeted a photo of Chelsea Clinton’s wedding, with Ghislane sitting to one side of the congregation, captioned ‘Birds of a feather’.
He promptly got spit-toasted by the Twitterati, who posted the photo above showing mum and dad getting very cosy with Epstein and Ghislane. The tweet vanished shortly afterwards.
It begs the question, just how many young girls of Epstein’s ‘acquaintance’ did Donny grab by the pussy...? 🤔

Donald lies a lot but on one point I think he's telling the truth. Of Epstein:

It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side

And would be unlikely to draw attention to Esptein's preferences in a mocking manner if Epstein were capable of turning round and saying you too.

I’ve heard that quite though and it definitely doesn’t seem like Trump’s mocking him. In fact it appeared that Trump was more impressed and actually defending Epstein “So he likes younger girls, big whoop, fuhgeddaboutit!”

I hope Maxwell can bring him down as a paedo. That would make her pitiful existence momentarily worthwhile For civilisation.

A "friend" of hers has said she will Not throw Andrew under a bus. Personally I'd throw anyone under a bus to avoid some years in jail

A lot of people in jail fall down stairs, in to a noose, through a woidchipper and burst into flames. Apparently.

Feds will do everything in their power to ensure she is watched 24/7 in New Hampshire and, more importantly, NYC.
Given what happened to Epstein ('allowed' to commit suicide) and the the little black book she undoubtedly has - in very safe keeping - it would be either...
a) highly convenient if she died
or
b) incredibly troublesome if she died
The fact it's SDNY bringing the case, I would be v surprised if she didn't make it to court and beyond.
The big question is the extent which she will co-operate.
Will anything new emerge about her father - that well known bouncing czech who couldn't swim; unsubstantiated claims to be Mossad agent.
Favoured daughter who couldn't live upto her father's expectations; who knows?

It seems that her arrest involved a lot of cops and noise. Why, do you think?
If she was going to destroy anything incriminating it's have been done months ago.
So- big production for the media? Or so that no one cop could be bribed into being trigger-happy?

I think this is now being set-up for the prince of golf, the president of golf and the ex-president of funny tasting cigars, to take the public's wrath, while the masters of wall street and the city, who don't normally crave publicity will get to keep their secrets.

She’s been on the bench for recent cases involving the Grape Street Crips, according to NJ Advance Media, a gang charged with running a drug trafficking operation. Salas has more recently taken on a lawsuit brought by Deutsche Bank investors alleging the bank failed to follow its anti-money-laundering policies by taking on “high-risk” clients including Jeffrey Epstein, the convicted sex offender, the AP reported.

She will go to trial. Won't take the stand and get a long sentence.

She will take one for the 'team' because what she has to lose is more important to her than 10-15 years in jail.
