Arrested in connection with his ties to Jeffrey Epstein.

逮捕與他與 Jeffrey Epstein 的關係有關。

It follows weeks of new revelations about their friendship following the US Justice Department's release of millions of files from the Epstein case.

這是因為在美國司法部公佈 Epstein 案數百萬份文件後，數週來關於他們友誼的新爆料。

NBC 的 Raf Sanchez 在倫敦為我們報導。

First of all, what have you been able to learn so far?

首先，到目前為止你瞭解了些什麼？

This is a fast moving situation, but here's what we know so far.

情況變化很快，但這是我們目前所知道的。

British police took former Prince Andrew.

英國警方逮捕了前安德魯王子。

Andrew into custody early this morning, local time in Norfolk.

在當地時間今早，諾福克郡警方將安德魯王子逮捕。

It's where he's been living since he was forced out of his royal home in Windsor earlier this month.

他這個月稍早被迫離開溫莎的皇家住所後，就一直住在那裡。

Now, police are not officially naming him.

目前，警方並沒有正式公佈他的名字。

They are saying at this point that they have taken a man in his 60s into custody.

他們表示，目前已逮捕一名六十多歲的男子。

And the allegation, Craig, is misconduct in public office.

而指控，Craig，是公職不當行為。

This is effectively an allegation of corruption.

Now, this is important because Andrew, of course, has faced repeated allegations that he sexually abused some of Epstein's trafficking victims.

這很重要，因為安德魯王子當然一直面臨多次指控，說他性侵害了 Epstein 的一些被販賣的受害者。

British police are saying that at this point they are looking into allegations he misused his public office.

英國警方表示，目前他們正在調查他濫用公職的指控。

Now, they are not giving further details at this point, but

目前，他們沒有提供更多細節，但

what we do know is in that massive release of Department of Justice emails from the convicted sex offenders accounts, there were emails from Prince Andrew, who was a prince back then, back in 2010, to Jeffrey Epstein.

我們知道的是，在美國司法部從這些判刑的性犯罪者帳戶中大量釋出的電子郵件裡，有來自當時還是王子的 Prince Andrew 在 2010 年寄給 Jeffrey Epstein 的電子郵件。

He was serving at that point as a trade envoy for the British government.

那時候他正擔任英國政府的貿易特使。

He had access to sensitive trade information and he sent some of that trade data to Epstein.

他可以接觸到敏感的貿易資訊，而他把其中一些貿易資料傳給了 Epstein。

再次強調，這是發生在 2010 年。

This is after Epstein was convicted in Florida in 2008 when the prince was sending him these emails.

這是在 Epstein 於 2008 年在佛羅裡達被定罪之後，王子還寄這些電子郵件給他。

If he is charged, it's worth saying at this point he has been arrested, he has not been charged.

如果他被起訴，值得一提的是，到目前為止他已被逮捕，但尚未被起訴。

This is an offense that can carry prison time.

這是一項可能判處牢獄之災的罪行。

And it underscores, Craig, just the stunning fall from grace.

而這，Craig，也凸顯了他令人震驚的失勢。

We have been discussing with royal historians here in London this morning, trying to find any precedent for this.

今天早上我們在這裡倫敦與皇室歷史學家討論，試圖找出任何先例。

No one can think of a situation in the modern era where the King's younger sibling has been arrested on suspicion of public corruption and is potentially facing charges.

在現代，沒有人能想像國王的弟弟會因為涉嫌公職腐敗而被逮捕，而且可能面臨起訴。

In terms of what would happen next year, first steps would be some kind of decision about bail and then it would be in the hands of prosecutors for whether to formally bring charges.

至於明年會發生什麼，第一步將是關於保釋的決定，然後就看檢察官是否會正式提起訴訟。

Let us bring in NBC's chief international correspondent, Keir Simmons, who has covered the royal family for decades.

讓我們請來 NBC 的首席國際特派員 Keir Simmons，他數十年來一直報導皇室事務。

And again, former Prince Andrew, it should be noted here, arrested on his 66th birthday.

再說一次，前安德魯王子，值得一提的是，他在 66 歲生日時被捕。

Tell us a little bit more about what you've been able to glean from the situation so far.

告訴我們更多你目前為止從情況中瞭解到的資訊。

And to be arrested on your 66th birthday, on your birthday in the early hours of the morning, well, that is quite something.

而且在 66 歲生日的凌晨被逮捕，這真的很不尋常。

I mean, Craig, look, this is a royal scandal alongside scandals that we've seen through the decades.

我說，Craig，你看，這是一樁皇家醜聞，跟我們幾十年來看到的其他醜聞一樣。

But the royal family have been trying to distance themselves.

但皇室一直試圖與他劃清界線。

We've seen that in the fact that we now call him Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, not Prince Andrew.

我們從現在稱他為 Andrew Mountbatten Windsor，而不是安德魯王子，這一點就能看出來。

His airs and graces, if you like, were taken away.

他的架子和姿態，如果你喜歡這樣說的話，都被收回了。

We've seen that in the messaging from King Charles, who frankly has had for a long time a fairly distant relationship with his brother, but

我們從查爾斯國王傳達的訊息中看到了這一點，老實說，他長期以來與他兄弟的關係一直相當疏遠，但是

You'll remember, Craig, just in the past few weeks, on a trip to Saudi Arabia, Prince William and the Princess of Wales, Catherine, put out a statement about the Epstein scandal, talking about their feelings for the victims of that scandal.

你還記得，Craig，就在過去幾週，威廉王子和威爾斯凱瑟琳公主在訪問沙烏地阿拉伯時，發表了一份關於 Epstein 案的聲明，談論他們對該案受害者的感受。

And clearly it was heartfelt and it was a personal message, but

顯然，這是發自內心的個人訊息，但是

I think it was also part of this process of moving Andrew away from the royal family.

我覺得這也是讓安德魯王子遠離皇室的一部分。

One of the questions, of course, Craig, is going to be whether that's really possible, because, for example, royal watchers are talking now about the question of whether there are emails that Andrew Mountbatten Windsor will have used, will have sent while he was a trade envoy, while he was a working member of the royal family.

當然，Craig，其中一個問題是這是否真的可行，因為，例如，皇室觀察家們現在正在討論安德魯·蒙巴頓·溫莎在擔任貿易特使、擔任皇室成員期間，是否曾使用或發送過電子郵件。

Does Buckingham palace have records of those emails?

白金漢宮有這些電子郵件的記錄嗎？

Will they be, will it be expected, will Buckingham palace be expected to hand over that kind of evidence?

他們會，會預期白金漢宮交出這類證據嗎？

So the, the possibility that the royal family get pulled into this is very real.

所以，皇室被捲入其中的可能性非常真實。

Despite their efforts to kind of protect the brand, if you like, our chief international correspondent, Keir Simmons here.

儘管他們努力保護品牌，如果這麼說的話，我們的首席國際特派員 Keir Simmons 在這裡。

We should note we've received a statement as well from the family of Virginia Roberts Giuffre.

我們應該注意到，我們也收到了 Virginia Roberts Giuffre 家人的一份聲明。

That statement reads in part, today our hearts are broken.

聲明中部分內容寫道，今天我們的心碎了。

Our broken hearts have been lifted at the news that no one is above the law, not even royalty.

聽到沒有人能凌駕於法律之上，即使是皇室成員，我們破碎的心也得到了慰藉。

On behalf of our sister, Virginia Roberts Giuffre, we extend our gratitude to the police for the investigation and arrest of Andrew Mountbatten Windsor.

代表我們的姊姊 Virginia Roberts Giuffre，我們感謝警方對 Andrew Mountbatten Windsor 的調查與逮捕。

Again, that coming from the family of Virginia Roberts Giuffre, of course, Virginia Roberts Giuffre, one of the most prominent accusers in the Jeffrey Epstein scandal, who died by suicide last year.

再次強調，這是來自 Virginia Roberts Giuffre 家人的聲明，當然，Virginia Roberts Giuffre 是 Jeffrey Epstein 案中最知名的指控者之一，她去年自殺身亡。
