Close to 90 Air Travels Associated to Epstein Allegedly Landed at or Took Off from UK Airports
A review has uncovered that nearly 90 flights connected to Jeffrey Epstein are said to have arrived at and departed from UK airports, with some reportedly having onboard British women who claim they were abused by the found guilty sex offender.
Flight Logs Uncover Trail of Travel
The flight logs were among a trove of court documents and files released by the estate of Jeffrey Epstein that have been released over the previous twelve months. The analysis found 87 aircraft movements connected to Epstein – encompassing many that were hitherto undisclosed – coming into or leaving from British airfields between the early 1990s and 2018.
Onboard Individuals and Post-Conviction Travel
Unnamed “females” were documented among the passengers travelling into and out of the UK. Crucially, 15 of these UK flights happened following Epstein’s 2008 conviction for procuring prostitution from a child.
“It was ‘astonishing’ that there had never been a ‘thorough probe in the UK’ into his dealings in the country,” remarked American attorneys representing numerous Epstein survivors.
British Victims and Court Cases
Testimony from one of the British victims aided the conviction of Epstein’s accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell of child sex-trafficking in the US in 2021. However, that survivor has never been contacted by police in the UK, according to her attorney based in Florida.
In a response, the the Met indicated they had “not received any additional information that would support restarting the investigation.” They added, “Should fresh and pertinent information be presented to us, encompassing any arising from the release of documents in the US, we will review it.”
Continuing Document Release and Judicial Decisions
A bill to disclose every document held by the US government in regarding Epstein passed the US Congress last month. The Department of Justice has until 19 December to follow through. A vast number of documents are anticipated to be made public.
Additionally, a federal judge decided last week that the department could make public investigative materials from a trafficking prosecution against Maxwell, Epstein’s longtime confidante, who is serving a 20-year prison sentence over the allegations.
