Jen Psaki shares how a particularly damning photo of former prince Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor with Jeffrey Epstein victim Virginia Roberts Giuffre and Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell, which both Maxwell and Mountbatten-Windsor had insisted was fake, appears to be authenticated by an e-mail released by Epstein's estate.
