Federal agents arrested the 82-year-old at a care home in Lakeland after material was allegedly found in two Los Angeles storage units he had rented for nearly two decades. He did not enter a plea at his initial hearing and denies wrongdoing.

Court filings cited film negatives and books recovered by investigators. The allegations remain unproven and will be tested through the judicial process.

A person described as a friend of Meghan said the duchess hoped for a full investigation and justice for any victims. Representatives for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex had been approached for comment.
