Sky Roberts said survivors ‘still fighting to be heard’ after king, whose brother Andrew was accused of assault by Giuffre, did not meet with them
The brother of the late Virginia Giuffre criticized King Charles III for not meeting with survivors of Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse during his visit to the United States this week.
“Survivors are here sitting with members of Congress, still fighting to be heard, still pushing for real accountability, while many of the powerful figures connected to these systems remain just out of reach, unable to acknowledge survivors face to face,” Giuffre’s brother Sky Roberts said. “You would expect this to be a moment for the king to give a message to the world that he stands with survivors.”
Roberts spoke at a roundtable discussion hosted by Ro Khanna, the California Democratic representative, who co-authored the Epstein Files Transparency Act. The discussion included relatives of Giuffre, who took her own life last year, Sharlene Rochard and Danielle Bensky, Epstein survivors, and representatives from several human rights and women’s rights organizations. The roundtable was held ahead of King Charles III’s address to Congress on Tuesday.
Khanna sent the king a letter last month, urging him to meet with survivors of Epstein’s abuse during his state visit to the US.
