Prince Andrew sex accuser Virginia Giuffre’s memoir omitted name of ‘well known’ former Prime Minister who raped her because ‘she feared he’d kill her’

In the continuing fall-out from Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse victim Virginia Giuffre’s posthumous memoir the question remains of who is the ‘sadistic’ former Prime Minister that she said raped and beat her?

Since Ms Giuffre’s harrowing tell-all book, Nobody’s Child, was published ten days ago, much of the heat has been on Prince Andrew over his friendship with billionaire paedophile Epstein, and Ms Giuffre’s claims that Andrew had sex with her three times when she was a sex trafficking victim, which he denies.

But Piers Morgan has now raised the scandal of the ‘well-known Prime Minister’ mentioned in the book whose alleged ill-treatment of teenager Ms Giuffre went far beyond any of the other men she wrote about.

And Ms Giuffre’s ghostwriter Amy Wallace told Morgan that Virginia omitted the man’s name from the book because she genuinely believed he would kill her if she named him.

Interviewing Ms Wallace on his YouTube show, Piers Morgan Uncensored, the broadcaster asked her: ‘She says in the book that one of the men who raped her was the former high-profile prime minister of a country, that’s an astonishing allegation. Are you in a position to say any more?’

‘Well, people who read the book will see that the man was a sadist, not just a rapist,’ said Ms Wallace. ‘If you’re asking me if I can name that person, the answer is no, and I will explain to you why.

‘As I’ve said, every victim of sexual assault weighs cost/benefit, I want to hold them to account. What’s it going to cost me? My privacy?

‘Obviously, in Virginia’s case, physical safety and threats. And she received them – so that gentleman, she was afraid would kill her.’

The passage in the book where Virginia – who committed suicide in April – discusses the politician’s attack more than 20 years ago are graphic.

She recalled: ‘Just when I thought things couldn’t get worse for me, they did: Epstein trafficked me to a man who raped me more savagely than anyone had before.

‘We were on Epstein’s island when I was ordered to take this man to a cabana. Immediately it was clear that this man, whom I’ve taken pains to describe in legal filings only as a former prime minister, wasn’t interested in caresses.

‘He wanted violence. He repeatedly choked me until I lost consciousness and took pleasure in seeing me in fear for my life.

‘Horrifically, this man laughed when he hurt me and got more aroused when I begged him to stop.

‘Afterward, I tearfully begged Epstein not to send me back to him.

‘I got down on my knees and pleaded with him. I don’t know if Epstein feared the man or if he owed him a favor, but he wouldn’t make any promises, saying coldly of the politician’s brutality, “You’ll get that sometimes”.’

Around two months later, Epstein sent her again to the same man, this time to perform a sexual act with him on the billionaire’s private jet.

Although he was not violent on that occasion, she recalled being terrified.

‘The blood rushed to my head, and I could barely breathe. “Will he kill me this time?” I wondered, and for a dizzy moment, I thought I might faint.

‘The pilot discreetly closed the door to the cockpit, and we took off. For the next hour, I was on high alert, braced for a fatal blow.’

Ghostwriter Ms Wallace told Morgan that the threat from the former minister is just as real as it was before Virginia’s death.

‘And in the week since the book has come out, I’ve had people get in touch with me and say, “We know who that guy is, and he would kill her. He has the ability to do so”.’

Ms Wallace said that other men had made threats against Virginia, telling her: ‘Take our names out of your mouth, or else’, vowing to tie her up in court ‘for the rest of your life’, if she did not.

Ms Wallace added: ‘In the end, she’s a mother. She needs to protect her family. They had threats and frankly, those children are still alive.

‘Virginia, sadly, is not. She should be sitting here where I’m sitting, she should be talking to you, but her family is still alive, and some of these folks are scary.

‘So Virginia made decisions, and my stance as her ghostwriter, her collaborator, is to give her something that I wish she had received more of during her lifetime, when she was with us, which is respect, she made decisions that I respect and I’m not going to breach them.’

She called on the FBI to take action against the former prime minister and other abusers, saying: ‘Frankly, law enforcement needs to do its job.

‘She and other brave survivors of this sex trafficking ring went to the FBI repeatedly, talked to Department of Justice officials repeatedly. Their names are in the Epstein files, and nothing has been done about it.’

The call was echoed by Virginia’s lawyer, Sigrid McCawley, appearing on Jake Tapper’s The Lead on CNN last week, where she was asked if the police had been given the politician’s name.

Ms McCawley replied: ‘Absolutely. Virginia cooperated with law enforcement from the very beginning, as did many of the survivors. I mean, she really wanted them to hold the individuals who harmed her accountable.

‘And you heard the horrific abuse described in her book, and that was just, you know, the book doesn’t outline everything that she went through, so certainly, there were many more of those instances, and she shared that information with law enforcement.

‘I attended interviews with her, she was in full disclosure with everything that had happened to her, and we were always hopeful that law enforcement would continue to move forward after they convicted [Epstein’s recruiter and girlfriend] Ghislaine Maxwell. We were hopeful that other individuals who participate in these crimes would be held accountable.’

Tapper asked: ‘One would think that if a prime minister, by definition, somebody from another country came to the United States and raped an American girl or American woman, that that would be in law enforcement’s interest, in the interest of justice, to investigate, to interview that person, perhaps even to prosecute.

‘Do you know of any actions taken by the Justice Department investigators under any presidency to do that, to talk to this prime minister?’

Ms McCawley replied that she was not.
