Story summary

A U.S. judge has ordered the release of Prince Harry's immigration documents, following claims from the Heritage Foundation that he may have misrepresented his past drug use on his visa application. While the heavily redacted documents won't reveal his immigration status, they could shed light on whether he received any special treatment, a notion denied by Trump's administration.
