Ex-Prince Andrew’s arrest: Letters to the Editor — Feb. 21, 2026

The Issue: Former Prince Andrew’s arrest for sharing confidential information with Jeffrey Epstein.

After former Prince Andrew’s arrest, one question still remains: Will American prosecutors criminally charge business, legal and academic leaders who may have engaged in Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual exploitation of teenage girls (“Arrest of Prince Harming,” Feb. 20)?

Or will America’s call for justice be limited to high-powered people being fired or forced to resign?

While Andrew’s arrest is embarrassing, I don’t agree that the monarchy is in crisis. His arrest demonstrates the importance and ongoing value of the monarchy.

Not a single elected politician, government official, business magnate, charity advocate or celebrity has been arrested for their entanglements with Epstein. Yet, royalty stepped up to see justice carried out.

Salford, United Kingdom

The unredacted truth of this tragic time in history must be laid bare for all to see and understand these humans’ inhumanity in the name of greed, hedonism and selfishness.

I’m glad former Prince Andrew is being held accountable for his alleged crimes, but this should only be the beginning. Many more criminals at all levels must face justice.

It is time for the United Kingdom to dump the royal family. For hundreds of years, British royals have lived high on their horses at the expense of commoners. Now at their lowest popularity level among their people, it’s time to end the charade.

That Randy Andy is still in the line of succession is unfathomable.

It’s nice to see Britain holding Andrew accountable for his involvement with Jeffrey Epstein. Meanwhile, not one of the rich Americans who partook in Epstein’s “extracurricular activities” has been criminally charged.

Many of these men say they cut ties with Epstein when they found out he was a sexual deviant, and had never been involved with his girls. But much of the evidence shows a different story.

So, the English law enforcement that ignored rape and sexual assault victims who were terrorized by Pakistani grooming gangs instead managed to collar Prince Andrew for nonsense.

That should make the women of Britain feel safer.

The Issue: U2’s new song “American Obituary,” honoring Renee Good, a protester killed by ICE agents.

As an Irish-American with dual citizenship and a U2 fan, I can’t help feeling sorry for the band (“U2 protest song for Minn. shoot vic Good,” Feb. 20).

To try to stay relevant, they wrote a song about Renee Good and protesters “fighting on the front lines of freedom,” titled “America Obituary.”

I guess watching a 30-second news clip about Good makes Bono knowledgeable about American freedom. Wasn’t he the one who accepted knighthood on his knees from a country that tried to annihilate the Irish?

Bono should learn more about what freedom is and the limitations to enjoying it.

Why not write a beautiful ballad for Laken Riley? Lest you forget, Bozo, . . . oops, Bono, she was the young nursing student savagely raped and murdered by an illegal migrant criminal, the kind of scumbags ICE is trying to round up.

Good’s actions caused her demise. She shouldn’t have prevented legal authorities from doing their jobs. Riley was just jogging before class.
