Virginia Giuffre, an accuser of Jeffery Epstein, died by suicide in April last year. She had alleged she was trafficked for sex by Epstein and others, including Prince Andrew.
The interactions Jeffery Epstein accuser Virginia Giuffre had with Australian police before her death will be reviewed, Western Australia's police commissioner has confirmed.
Ms Giuffre died by suicide in April last year at her semi-rural property north of Perth.
She had long alleged she was trafficked for sex to former prince Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and other prominent figures by Epstein when she was a teenager.
WA Police Commissioner Col Blanch has confirmed his officers' handling of Ms Giuffre's case would be reviewed, in response to a letter he received from her family.
"We respond to over 100,000 family violence incidents every year," he told a WA parliament hearing on Wednesday morning.
"I'd love to give assurance on every single one, but I can't — but that one will be subject to a review."
He said the state's coroner and ombudsman could also launch their own investigations.
It comes as Ms Giuffre's brother and sister-in-law, Sky and Amanda Roberts, renewed calls for a coronial inquiry into the circumstances leading to her death.
