Annie Farmer, a survivor of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, called for the U.S. to go after billionaires connected to Epsteins crimes after former Prince Andrew was arrested by British authorities on Thursday morning.
In this country, it feels like our system prioritizes profit over all else, and so our version of royalty is really the billionaire class.
Im just really hoping we can follow the U.K.s lead and hold our own royal class, these billionaires, accountable, Farmer told CNNs Kaitlan Collins on Thursday evening.
Farmer said she hoped the U.S. would follow the U.K.s lead and prosecute billionaires involved in Epsteins crimes. She and her sister, Maria Farmer, are both Epstein victims.
It is complicated because what weve seen from the DOJ has left me with little faith that they will do the right thing, Annie Farmer said.
