'Prince Andrew should go to jail': Jeffrey Epstein's Australian sex slave Virginia Roberts slams royal for denying he had sex with her when she was just 17 as she returns to NYC mansion where his paedophile pal held her captive

Virginia Roberts is hitting out at Prince Andrew in a new interview that is set to air this weekend on 60 Minutes Australia.  

She is also returning to the New York City mansion where Jeffrey Epstein first took her almost 20 years ago, when she was still underage and held captive by the pedophile. 

'Being a kid, I didn't realize what world I was being brought into,' says Virginia.

'This mansion represents jail to me.' 

Now, she wants to see the men who she says sexually abused and assaulted her to go to prison too - allegedly including Prince Andrew.  

'Prince Andrew should go to jail. I mean, is he ever going to? Probably not,' says Virginia. 

The prince has repeatedly and strenuously denied the allegations. DailyMail.com reached out to the palace who declined to comment on Roberts' latest interview.

Virginia Roberts, 35, spoke with 60 Minutes Australia about her years being trafficked as Jeffrey Epstein's sex slave

The 60 Minutes preview features a moment where Virginia pulls out the photo of her with Prince Andrew and Ghislaine Maxwell that the royal has said is fake.   

'This is a real photo. That is Andrew,' says Virginia, who has claimed both publicly and in court documents that Epstein told her to have sex with the royal multiple times beginning she was 17.

That is the same night that she claims Epstein took the photo of her and Prince Andrew at Maxwell's home.

60 Minutes correspondent Tara Brown then notes that Prince Andrew denies all of Virginia's claims, says he was never with her on that night and calls the photo a fake. 

'He says it's not his arm and those are not his fingers,' says Brown. 

Virginia responds: 'Oh the chubby fingers, I know.'  

Prince Andrew was not the only person Virginia has named in the interview either, which looks to be her most in-depth television sit-down.

'I was trafficked to other billionaires, I was trafficked to other politicians. It was the elite of the world,' Virginia tells Brown.

'They should be named and they should be shamed. What they've done is horrific.'   

She also notes: 'There was not a part of my body that they did not abuse.'

Roberts had previously provided the FBI with photos that proved she traveled around the globe with Epstein one she is seen on a New York City ferry while others show her horse riding and posing up in front of a museum treasure chest.

Those three photos were taken by Epstein himself she claims, when he shuttled her to New Mexico for the weekend.  

All the while raping her and letting his friends do the same, according to Roberts' lawsuit.

'Epstein took me on a ferry boat on one of the trips to New York City and there he took the picture above. I was approximately 15 or 16 years old at the time,' she writes of the first photo. 

In that picture, Roberts looks years younger than her age as she smiles for the camera while on an unchaperoned trip with Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell over 1,000 miles away from home. 

'You can see how young I looked in the photograph,' she notes, while also claiming she was raped by Epstein at his Manhattan mansion on that trip. 

'Over the next few weeks, Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell trained me to do what they wanted, including sexual activities and the use of sexual toys,' she wrote.

'The training was in New York and Florida, at Epstein's mansions. It was basically every day and was like going to school. I also had to have sex with Epstein many times.'

Roberts said that she was trained to be 'everything a man wanted me to be.'

'The first one is a museum in Santa Fe, New Mexico. We had gone sightseeing for the day. Epstein took this picture of me. I was approximately 17 at the time, judging from the looks of it,' write Roberts.

'At the end of the day we returned to Epstein's Zorro Ranch. The second picture is me on one of Epstein's horses on the ranch in New Mexico. The following two are from wintertime in New Mexico.'

Roberts and another underage victim are suing the government for the sweetheart plea deal they offered Epstein, and for failing to provide the plaintiffs and other victims with any concrete information about the sex offender.

In her case, Roberts did in fact get a letter from the FBI, but not until long after the plea deal had negotiated and Epstein's non-prosecution deal and signed.

That letter is attached as an exhibit in one filing, and shows it was mailed in September, more than two months after Epstein signed off on the deal in June .

Tree of life: 'If I left Epstein, he knew all kinds of powerful people. He could have had me killed or abducted, and I always knew he was capable of that,' said Roberts

Roberts, who was the first of the Epstein victims to go public with her allegations, recounted how she found herself being shuttled around the world and raped by men three times her age in court papers. 

'Epstein had promised me a lot, and I knew if I left I would be in big trouble. I also knew that I was a witness to a lot of illegal and very bad behavior by Epstein and his friends,' stated one filing.

'If I left Epstein, he knew all kinds of powerful people. He could have had me killed or abducted, and I always knew he was capable of that if I did not obey him. He let me know that he knew many people in high places. Speaking about himself, he said 'I can get away' with things. I was very scared, particularly since I was a teenager.'

And she was not the only one who was scared she claims in court documents. 

'When I was with him, Epstein had sex with underage girls on a daily basis. His interest in this kind of sex was obvious to the people around him,' noted Roberts.

'The activities were so obvious and bold that anyone spending any significant time at one of Epstein's residences would have clearly been aware of what was going on.' 

Roberts in the past claimed in US court papers that she slept with Prince Andrew, a former friend of Epstein – however he has always denied any involvement and the allegations were later struck from the record as being 'immaterial and impertinent'. 

Facebook says 100 software developers tried to improperly access user data - including names and profile pictures - even though their privileges were taken away last year

Facebook has said that up to 100 software developers may have been able to improperly access user's data despite the company having changed its policies more than eighteen months ago.

The company claims it recently discovered that some apps were able to retain access to user's personal information despite making changes to its service in April 2018. 

The data included names and profile pictures of people in specific groups on the social network.

As many as 100 software developers had improper access to Facebook users' data, including their names and profile pictures, but their access was supposed to have ended in April 2018

In a detailed blog posting, the company explained how it has since removed such access and reached out to around 100 developer partners who may have been able to see the information.   

The social network says that at least 11 developer partners accessed such data in the last 60 days, CNBC reports.

Facebook platform partnerships head Konstantinos Papamiltiadis says a recent security review found that some apps still had access despite changes being made last year. 

'Although we've seen no evidence of abuse, we will ask them to delete any member data they may have retained and we will conduct audits to confirm that it has been deleted,' the blog states. 

Papamiltiadis said the apps were 'primarily social media management and video streaming apps, designed to make it easier for group admins to manage their groups more effectively and help members share videos to their groups.'

Facebook paid a record $5 billion settlement with the Federal Trade Commission in July after the agency began probing the company after political consulting firm Cambridge Analytica improperly accessed the data of 87 million users. Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is pictured

The company has not stated how many users data may have been looked at. 

Facebook Group administrators can use third-party tools to manage their groups, giving apps information about its activity, but since 2018, developers no longer be able to see individual members' names, profile pictures, or unspecified other profile data. 

Facebook began to restrict access to its user data by third party software developers after reports in March 2018 that political consulting firm Cambridge Analytica had improperly accessed the data of 87 million Facebook users, possibly influencing the outcome of the 2016 U.S. presidential election.

The following September, tens of thousands of apps were suspended as a result of an investigation following the Cambridge Analytica scandal. 

In July of this year Facebook paid a record $5 billion settlement with the Federal Trade Commission after the federal agency began probing the company as a result of the Cambridge Analytica scandal.

WHAT IS THE CAMBRIDGE ANALYTICA SCANDAL?

Communications firm Cambridge Analytica has offices in London, New York, Washington, as well as Brazil and Malaysia.

The company boasts it can 'find your voters and move them to action' through data-driven campaigns and a team that includes data scientists and behavioural psychologists.

'Within the United States alone, we have played a pivotal role in winning presidential races as well as congressional and state elections,' with data on more than 230 million American voters, Cambridge Analytica claims on its website.

The company profited from a feature that meant apps could ask for permission to access your own data as well as the data of all your Facebook friends.

This meant the company was able to mine the information of 87 million Facebook users even though just 270,000 people gave them permission to do so.

This was designed to help them create software that can predict and influence voters' choices at the ballot box.

Virginia woman who was fired for flipping off Trump's motorcade while cycling wins her local election against incumbent Republican (5 Pics)

A Virginian cyclist who was fired from her job after she gave President Donald Trump's motorcade the middle finger, has just won a seat on her county's Board of Supervisors. 

Juli Briskman defeated incumbent Republican Suzanne Volpe, 5,586 to 4,721, for the Loudoun County Board of Supervisors, Algonkian District.

With 99 percent of the vote reported by the Loudoun County Office of Elections Tuesday night, unofficial returns showed Briskman ahead of Volpe with 52 percent of the vote.

She sued and won a severance claim, but her wrongful-termination lawsuit was dismissed.

Virginia Democrats sweeped in the legislative and local elections, taking full control of the statehouse for the first time in more than two decades.

Democrats won majorities in both the state House and Senate in Tuesday's legislative election. This is the third election in a row that Virginia Democrats have made significant gains since President Donald Trump was elected.

Scientists call for FEWER people on the planet to combat climate emergency that they say will lead to 'untold human suffering' (10 Pics)

Thousands of the world's greatest scientists have joined together to declare that 'untold human suffering' is unavoidable without deep and lasting shifts in human activities.

An alliance of more than 11,000 scientists signed the paper which declared the climate emergency before providing a set of effective actions humans could take.

To limit the damage caused by humans' greenhouse gas emissions the paper calls for more control over the massively booming global population, currently increasing by over 200,000 people a day. 

Adding that population control would have to be approached with methods that ensured social and economic justice in order to sustain a morally and ecologically sound world.

The global group is led by William J. Ripple professor of ecology at Oregon State University and researcher Christopher Wolf.  

Professor Ripple said: 'Despite 40 years of major global negotiations, we have continued to conduct business as usual and have failed to address this crisis.

'Climate change has arrived and is accelerating faster than many scientists expected.'

The paper pointed to six areas in which humanity should take immediate steps to slow down the effects of a warming planet.

Firstly reducing the consumption of energy and replacing fossil fuels with low-carbon renewables - leaving remaining stocks of fossil fuels in the ground.

They detail how this can be encouraged by eliminating subsidies to fossil fuel companies and imposing carbon fees that are high enough to restrain the use of fossil fuels.

Secondly the paper called for the reduction of 'short-lived pollutants' such as methane, soot and hydroflourocarbons to be drastically cut - calculating that the reduction could see the short-term warming trend cut 50 per cent over the next few decades. 

The paper also suggests ecosystems such as forests, grasslands and mangroves are protected in order for them to reach 'ecological potential' and act as carbon dioxide converters - a prevalent green house gas created by human activity.

Humans are encouraged to adopt a diet with fewer animal products by the researchers. 

The dietary shift would significantly reduce emissions of methane and other greenhouse gases and free up agricultural lands for growing human food rather than livestock feed.

Reducing food waste is also stated as critical - the scientists say at least one-third of all food produced ends up as garbage, meaning unnecessary emissions were created in producing it. 

Scientists call for a 'carbon free' economy, shifting goals away from the growth of gross domestic product and the pursuit of extreme wealth.

Instead humans should realise their 'dependence on the biosphere' and put that first, curbing the exploitation of ecosystems, writes the paper.  

Finally the paper states that the growing rate of human population needs to slow in order to sustain an ecologically sound world. 

They add that population control would have to be approached with methods that ensured social and economic justice.    

The paper was published today in BioScience and held more than 11,000 scientist signatories from 153 countries.

In conclusion the paper states: 'Mitigating and adapting to climate change while honoring the diversity of humans entails major transformations in the ways our global society functions and interacts with natural ecosystems. 

'We are encouraged by a recent surge of concern. Governmental bodies are making climate emergency declarations. Schoolchildren are striking. Ecocide lawsuits are proceeding in the courts. Grassroots citizen movements are demanding change, and many countries, states and provinces, cities, and businesses are responding.

'As an Alliance of World Scientists, we stand ready to assist decision makers in a just transition to a sustainable and equitable future.'    

Graphs of vital signs in the paper illustrate several key climate-change indicators and factors over the last 40 years, since scientists from 50 nations met at the First World Climate Conference in Geneva in 1979.

In recent decades, multiple other global assemblies have agreed that urgent action is essential, but greenhouse gas emissions are still rapidly rising.

Other ominous signs from human activities include sustained increases in per-capita meat production, global tree cover loss and number of airline passengers.

There are also some encouraging signs - including decreases in global birth rates and decelerated forest loss in the Brazilian Amazon, and increases in wind and solar power - but even those measures are tinged with worry.

The decline in birth rates has slowed over the last 20 years, for example, and the pace of Amazon forest loss appears to be starting to increase again.

Professor Ripple added: 'Global surface temperature, ocean heat content, extreme weather and its costs, sea level, ocean acidity, and area burned in the United States are all rising.

'Globally, ice is rapidly disappearing as demonstrated by decreases in minimum summer Arctic sea ice, Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets, and glacier thickness. All of these rapid changes highlight the urgent need for action.'
