Britain’s former ambassador to the U.S. has been arrested in connection with emails he sent to his “best pal” Jeffrey Epstein.
Peter Mandelson, 72, was arrested Monday by detectives investigating allegations of misconduct in public office, reports The Guardian. Cameras captured him being driven away from his home in an unmarked car shortly after being escorted from his home by officers.
Mandelson is accused of leaking a memo from the upper echelons of the British government to the disgraced financier and convicted sexual predator about a change in economic policy that would not be implemented until months later.
