Prince Andrew must cooperate with U.S. officials investigating Jeffrey Epstein , a lawyer representing some of his alleged victims has urged.

The demand came after Andrew the Queens second son announced he would step away from public duties for the foreseeable future, an unprecedented move for a modern royal.

Lisa Bloom, a lawyer who describes herself as fighting for victims of discrimination, harassment and abuse, said she had been working with five Epstein clients for months.

Replying on Twitter to the royal familys announcement that the Duke of York would be stepping away indefinitely from his royal duties, she said he was simply not credible in his interview.

He and his staff must cooperate with all investigations, show up for civil depositions and trials, and produce all documents, she added. We are just getting started.

She also drew attention to an apparent lack of remorse from the senior royal, calling his response to questions shocking.
