Approximately Ninety Flights Connected to Jeffrey Epstein Reportedly Came to or from UK Airports
A review has uncovered that nearly 90 aircraft journeys linked to Jeffrey Epstein are said to have landed at and took off from UK airfields, with some allegedly carrying British women who allege they were exploited by the found guilty sex offender.
Flight Logs Reveal Trail of Travel
The travel manifests were part of thousands of legal papers and papers made public by Epstein’s estate that have been disclosed over the last year. The analysis identified 87 aircraft movements connected to Epstein – encompassing many that were previously unknown – arriving or departing from British airfields between the early 1990s and 2018.
Onboard Individuals and Post-Conviction Travel
Unidentified female passengers were documented among the passengers travelling into and out of the UK. Significantly, 15 of these UK flights occurred following Epstein’s 2008 conviction for soliciting sex from a child.
“It was ‘shocking’ that there had never been a ‘comprehensive British inquiry’ into his activities in the country,” remarked American attorneys acting for hundreds of Epstein survivors.
British Victims and Court Cases
Evidence from one of the British victims aided the conviction of Epstein’s accomplice socialite Ghislaine Maxwell of sex trafficking of minors in the US in 2021. But, that individual has not received any contact by British law enforcement, as stated by her attorney based in Florida.
In a statement, the the Met indicated they had “not received any further information that would support restarting the probe.” They commented, “Should fresh and pertinent information be brought to our attention, encompassing any arising from the disclosure of material in the US, we will review it.”
Continuing Disclosure and Judicial Decisions
A bill to make public every document held by the US government in regarding Epstein was approved by the House and Senate last month. The US justice department has until 19 December to comply. A vast number of documents are anticipated to be made public.
Separately, a US judge ruled last week that the DOJ could publicly release case files from a sex-trafficking case against Maxwell, Epstein’s longtime confidante, who is currently serving a 20-year jail term over the allegations.
