British Jeffrey Epstein accuser on the legacy of Virginia Giuffre and coping with trauma

Title: British Jeffrey Epstein accuser on the legacy of Virginia Giuffre and coping with trauma
Runtime: 12:31
Date posted: 1 year ago
Description: WARNING: Contains mentions of abuse.

In a UK exclusive TV interview, Victoria Derbyshire speaks to a British woman who accused paedophile Jeffrey Epstein of sexually abusing her over several years. Anouska De Georgiou is a former model and actor who testified in court in 2019 in a special hearing by a US judge to allow victims their chance to be heard, after Epstein took his own life. Anouska was a close friend of Virginia Giuffre. Ms Guifree accused Prince Andrew and Jeffrey Epstein of sexual abuse, and died by suicide in April, aged just 41.

Virginia Giuffre claimed Prince Andrew had sexually assaulted her on three occasions when she was 17, allegations he has repeatedly denied. The Prince settled a civil sexual assault case brought against him in the US by Virginia Giuffre. The out-of-court settlement said the Duke - who made no admission of liability - would pay an undisclosed sum to Ms Giuffre. Prince Andrew said in an interview with this programme that...

Title: “From age 12, I've not lived a normal life” | grooming survivor speaks to Victoria Derbyshire
Runtime: 17:35
Date posted: 1 year ago
Description: ‘Zara’, not her real name, describes herself as of mixed heritage – her mum is white and English, her dad is Pakistani and she’s from Rotherham, where according to the Jay review published in 2014, 1400 girls some as young as 11, had been abused between 1997 and 2013. The report said these children had been raped, trafficked and intimidated, predominantly by men of Pakistani heritage and Rotherham council was criticised for failing to protect victims. As a 12 year old, 'Zara' and her friends were groomed and sexually assaulted first by a 61 year old called David Saynor - now serving a 24 year jail sentence. And then, still a young teenager, she says she was groomed and raped by a British Pakistani man. He goes on trial later this year. Victoria Derbyshire went to meet her in Rotherham. We are protecting her identity because she's giving evidence in that case.
