With investigations on the Epstein files continuing on both sides of the Atlantic, many are wondering who's next.

隨著跨越大西洋的 Epstein 檔案調查持續進行，許多人都在猜測下一個是誰。

基礎被動語態

President Donald Trump was asked about the former Prince Andrew and whether he thought any associates of Jeffrey Epstein in the US Would wind up in handcuffs.

川普總統被問到關於英國安德魯王子，以及他是否認為傑弗瑞·愛潑斯坦在美國的任何同夥會被逮捕。

I think it's so bad for the Royal Family.

我覺得這對王室來說太糟糕了。

To me, it's a very sad thing when I see that.

在我看來，看到這種事發生，是一件非常令人難過的事。

It's really interesting because nobody used to speak about Epstein.

這真的很有趣，因為以前根本沒人會談論愛潑斯坦。

他還活著的時候，大家卻不說話。

But I'm the one that can talk about it because I've been totally exonerated.

但我卻是那個可以說出來的人，因為我已經完全被免罪了。

So what impact could Andrew's arrest have on the Epstein files investigation in the U.S.

那麼，英國安德魯王子的逮捕會對美國的 Epstein 檔案調查產生什麼影響呢？

i put that question to Scott Lucas, professor of American Studies at University College Dublin.

我把這個問題問了都柏林大學學院美國研究教授史考特·盧卡斯。

I think the immediate impact is we get headlines for, you know, at least a few days regarding Andrew, because there's a lot of attention to the UK royalty in the American media in normal times.

我認為直接影響是，大家至少會討論幾天關於安德魯王子的頭條新聞，因為平常時期美國媒體就已經很關注英國王室了。

But I think in these abnormal times, of course, the more attention the White House is hoping to Andrew, the less attention there is to the fundamental question of accountability and transparency over both the redactions in the files that came out and in the files that are being withheld.

但在非常時期，當然，白宮越是關注安德魯王子，就越少人關注這些檔案的刪節以及被扣留檔案的根本責任和透明度問題。

The reason why I think that will not work is that I think there is still a great deal of public interest in getting all the files out there.

我認為這不會奏效的原因是，我認為公眾仍然非常有興趣讓所有檔案公開。

And specifically, it's that handful of Republican legislators who will not let this go.

具體來說，就是那一小撮共和黨立法者不會放過這件事。

You'll recall that back in November, we only got the bill for the release of the Epstein files because of four Republicans who joined the Democrats to demand this.

你可能會記得，在十一月的時候，我們之所以能通過 Epstein 檔案的釋出法案，就是因為有四位共和黨人加入了民主黨人，要求這麼做。

But more importantly, in the last three weeks, those Republicans have said they are not satisfied with the limited release of information.

但更重要的是，在過去三週，那些共和黨人表示，他們對有限度的資訊釋出並不滿意。

And when they were able to get in and see some of the files that had been redacted, only a small portion of them, they were able to come out and give a couple of key names of people who are implicated in the files.

當他們能夠看到一些被刪節過的檔案，雖然只是一小部分，他們就出來說出了幾位在檔案中被牽連的關鍵人物名字。

So I think when you look at representatives like Thomas Massie, when you look at Nancy Mace, Marjorie Taylor Greene, they're going to keep up the pressure on the Trump camp.

所以，我認為當你看像 Thomas Massie、Nancy Mace、Marjorie Taylor Greene 這些代表時，他們會持續對川普陣營施壓。

And I think some Trump supporters will support that move, that they do want the transparency, which means that the Trump folks can't hold the line and stonewall.

我認為一些川普的支持者會支持這個行動，他們確實想要透明度，這意味著川普那邊的人無法堅守陣線、阻撓到底。

Just wondering, Scott, what sort of political fallout you see coming from this.

我只是好奇，Scott，你認為這會帶來什麼樣的政治後果？

Because the investigation, at least in the UK is ongoing and, you know, a lot of people are still looking into it in the US as well.

因為調查，至少在英國還在進行中，而且，你知道，在美國也有很多人還在關注這件事。

Could we see US Prosecutors pursuing further cases in connection with the Epstein files?

我們是否可能看到美國檢察官針對 Epstein 檔案展開進一步的訴訟？

And if so, who do you think could be affected?

如果有的話，你認為誰可能會受到影響？

Well, I think you already have implications that Les Wexner, who is the 88 year old retail magnet and who was considered as a possible co conspirator by prosecutors around the time of Jeffrey Epstein's death and just afterwards, you know, his name was unredacted by the legislators when they saw the files a few weeks ago.

嗯，我認為你已經看到影響了，Les Wexner，這位 88 歲的零售業巨頭，在他過世前後曾被檢察官視為可能的共犯，你知道，幾週前立法者看到檔案時，他的名字已經被去除了刪節。

Tom Pritzker, you know, who is the head of Hyatt, has had to resign at least as CEO.

Tom Pritzker，你知道，他是 Hyatt 的負責人，至少已經辭去了 CEO 的職務。

Larry Summers, the economist, decided to step back from his positions.

經濟學家桑默斯（Larry Summers）決定辭去他的職務。

Now that doesn't mean that these folks will eventually face prosecution, but

這不代表這些人最終會面臨起訴，但

they've at least taken the reputational hit politically.

他們至少在政治上已經承受了聲譽的打擊。

And that's the key thing here, is that politicians, however, so far have been shielded from this.

而這才是關鍵，就是說，政治人物到目前為止，卻能置身事外。

I can't tell you if Donald Trump will be prosecuted.

我無法告訴你川普（Donald Trump）是否會被起訴。

What I can tell you is, is that one of the files that did make it through the stonewall by the White House and that I spoke about with DW days ago, that is concerning the sexual abuse of a victim in the 1980s when she was between 13 and 15 by Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump could be implicated in that case.

我能告訴你的是，其中一份檔案，在白宮的阻撓下，我幾天前和 DW 談過，內容是關於傑弗瑞·愛潑斯坦（Jeffrey Epstein）在 1980 年代性侵一名 13 到 15 歲的受害者，川普（Donald Trump）可能與此案有關。

Scott, thank you very much for talking with us again today.

史考特，非常感謝你今天再次和我們談話。

That was Scott Lucas from University College Dublin.
