Unlawful Display of Trump-Epstein Imagery Projected on Windsor Castle Results in Detentions

In a dramatic turn of events during Donald Trump's September 2025 state visit to Windsor Castle, four men were arrested for an 'unauthorised projection' onto the royal site. The projection, carried out by the protest group Led by Donkeys, aimed to shed light on the Epstein scandal and its implications for the world Trump seeks to shape.

The images displayed during the projection showed Donald Trump and the deceased, convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, along with their alleged correspondence and news headlines chronicling their ties. This event coincided with explosive testimony in Washington that underscored mounting pressure on Trump over the Epstein files.

During the hearings, descriptions of at least 20 powerful men, including a royal prince, were read into the record as allegedly named in FBI documents. While the prince's identity remains undisclosed, it is understood to be Prince Andrew, King Charles's brother, who has faced years of scrutiny over his friendship with Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.

The arrest of the four men, aged 60, 50, 37, and 36, was made on suspicion of malicious communications and public nuisance. Professor Scott Lucas of University College Dublin suggested that FBI Director Cash Patel's evasions made him appear like Trump's 'Sergeant Schultz,' implying Patel is protecting Trump's interests rather than investigating the Epstein case.

Light projections have become a signature tactic for protest groups in Britain, particularly Led by Donkeys, who used this method to draw attention to Trump's past ties with Epstein. The group's goal was to highlight the Epstein scandal and its implications for the world Trump wants to shape.

The men were released on conditional bail until 12 December 2025, pending further inquiries, with no names disclosed. The incident overshadowed Trump's meeting with King Charles and Prime Minister Keir Starmer, casting a shadow over the state visit.

As the investigations continue, the Epstein scandal remains a contentious issue, raising questions about the actions and associations of powerful individuals. The unauthorised projection at Windsor Castle serves as a stark reminder of the ongoing scrutiny and the public's demand for transparency.
