as his legal team insists the duke of york is cooperating with investigators. >> i don't think it's auestion of handing them over, and so its extradition? >> that case is still in process and you've commented on the death of epstein saying he will commit suicide. >> i don't think anything can change that conclusion. >> so they heard the interview what exactly is the justice department doing to get anything from them. >> the justice department is a little bit desperate because there are two things going on here. they really want information from prince andrew but guess what, they can't force him to talk at all. it's not a good idea for him to say anything. what has been the cooperation of prince andrew so far in the ca case? >> sure, they were paying lip service because i'm sure that his defense team has advised him and there's a very good reason for that. he's just a witness in this huge sex trafficking investigation, but he's not. he's more than that, he's actually a suspect. we know that because one of the victims indicates that she has come right out and said that she was forced to
