Friends in High Places
The "Epstein Files" are published and within days Queen's University in Belfast removes all its connections to former Senator George Mitchell. Fair hearing, or fair enough?
In January 2026 the US government release the "Epstein Files", revealing the names of some of those in the paedophile financier's orbit.
One of those whose name appears more than 300 times, is the former Senator George Mitchell. He strenuously denies any wrongdoing.
But, within days of the files being made public, Queen's University Belfast acts to remove its links with the Senator they had honoured in the decades before.
This series investigates the allegations made against Senator Mitchell and his defence that he has done no wrong.
