Beyond The Horizon

Author: Bobby Capucci

Beyond the Horizon is a project that aims to dig a bit deeper than just the surface level that we are so used to with the legacy media while at the same time attempting to side step the gaslighting and rhetoric in search of the truth. From the day to day news that dominates the headlines to more complex geopolitical issues that effect all of our lives, we will be exploring them all. It's time to stop settling for what is force fed to us and it's time to look beyond the horizon.

Mega Edition: Prince Andrew's Strategy In The Lawsuit With Virginia Roberts Comes Under Fire (2/26/26)
Thursday, 26 February, 2026

Virginia Roberts Giuffre filed a civil lawsuit in 2021 against Prince Andrew in federal court in New York, alleging that he sexually abused her on multiple occasions in 2001 when she was 17 years old and being trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. The complaint detailed encounters in London, New York, and the U.S. Virgin Islands, and included the now-infamous photograph showing Andrew with his arm around her waist. Andrew repeatedly denied the allegations, most notably in his 2019 BBC interview, where he offered unusual explanations that drew widespread scrutiny. His legal team initially sought to have the case dismissed, challenging jurisdiction and the validity of Giuffre’s claims. However, a federal judge allowed the case to proceed, intensifying public and institutional pressure on the royal household. In February 2022, before the case went to trial, Andrew reached an out-of-court settlement with Giuffre without admitting liability, reportedly paying a substantial sum and agreeing to a statement expressing regret for his association with Epstein.Royal historians and constitutional commentators were sharply critical of Andrew’s handling of the crisis, arguing that his confrontational legal posture and the tone of his public denials deepened reputational damage to the monarchy. Many contended that the decision to grant the BBC interview was strategically disastrous, portraying him as evasive and detached rather than transparent. Others argued that his initial effort to fight the lawsuit aggressively in U.S. court clashed with long-standing royal traditions of restraint and discretion, prolonging the scandal instead of containing it. Critics suggested that by refusing early mediation and allowing the case to advance publicly, Andrew forced the institution into a defensive position that threatened broader stability for the royal family. Historians noted that the monarchy survives on public trust and symbolic integrity, and that Andrew’s legal strategy appeared to prioritize personal exoneration over institutional preservation. The eventual settlement, while closing the civil case, was widely viewed as a tacit acknowledgment that the strategy had failed to shield either his reputation or that of the Crown.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
