Prince Andrew settles civil case with charity donation

From Morning Report, 8:11 am on 16 February 2022

Prince Andrew has reached a settlement for a civil sexual assault case brought against him by American woman, Virginia Giuffre.

Giuffre was suing the Duke of York for sexually assaulting her on three occasions when she was 17 -- Prince Andrew has repeatedly denied the allegations.

This morning a document submitted to a US court says they have reached an out of court settlement, and that a substantial donation will be made to Giuffre's charity.
