'I have goosebumps': Epstein accuser's jaw drops at Trump's comments about Andrew arrest
One of Jeffrey Epstein's earliest accusers was visibly astonished live on CNN when she heard President Donald Trump's reaction to the arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.
Alicia Arden may have been the very first victim to file a police report, back in 1997, against the late sex offender, but Santa Monica, California, police don't appear to have pursued her allegations, and she noted the irony that the former English prince was arrested in connection with his relationship to Epstein but so far no one has in the United States.
"No one has been arrested here in, in the U.S. yet that was connected with the files or in the files, and I have been reading some people in the the paper, they're losing their jobs, they, they are on the verge of being arrested I hope," Arden told "CNN News Central." "No one has been arrested yet here in the U.S., only the U.K., so yes, I would like to see some more activity of high-profile men that are in the files. They need to be arrested like Andrew was yesterday in the U.K., so it needs to take place in the U.S."
Host Sara Sidner then played a video clip of Trump, whose name appears as many as a million times in the Epstein files, aboard Air Force One expressing sympathy for the ex-royal's arrest on suspicion of misconduct in public office.
"I think it's a shame, I think it's very sad," Trump said. "I think it's so bad for the royal family. It's a very, very sad to me. It's a very sad thing. It's really interesting because nobody used to speak about Epstein when he was alive, but now they speak ... but I'm the one that can talk about it because I've been totally exonerated."
Arden's jaw dropped as she listened to the president's statements, and Sidner asked for her reaction.
"Well, I think it's a shame that the president is saying that," Arden said, "because, I mean, Andrew was allegedly, you know, hurting young girls or victims, and he's in the files, and so I, you know, I wish that Virginia Giuffre was alive. I met her, she would be so happy and relieved as to what is taking place with Andrew being arrested yesterday in the U.K. She would be so happy and so relieved."
"I really am unhappy that he said that," Arden added, "because I think Andrew is the first one that is, it's good news that he was arrested yesterday, and more to come, of pedophiles that are potentially already released in the files, and they need to be arrested here and in the U.K. So I don't know why he would be shocked at that. It's really frightening to me, I mean, I have goosebumps. It's frightening."
