Misconduct Charge Masks Bigger National Security Risk

  • Misconduct in public office is broad but hard to convict; Lownie says the facts point toward national security breaches and possibly treason.
  • He cites email correspondence, rapid forwarding of documents and intelligence sources linking Andrew to Russian criminal gangs.
ANECDOTE

Fergie Kept Hidden After Revelations

  • Lownie says Sarah Ferguson has been keeping a low profile and he once leaked her location in Switzerland, which cost him a source.
