Approximately 90 Flights Associated to Epstein Allegedly Landed at or Took Off from British Airports
Analysis has uncovered that nearly 90 aircraft journeys connected to the late financier Jeffrey Epstein are said to have arrived at and departed from British airports, with some reportedly carrying women from the UK who assert they were abused by the found guilty sex offender.
Flight Logs Reveal Pattern of Travel
The travel manifests were part of thousands of court documents and files made public by the estate of Jeffrey Epstein that have been released over the previous twelve months. The investigation found 87 flights linked to Epstein – featuring many that were not previously known – coming into or leaving from British airfields between the start of the 1990s and 2018.
Passenger Details and Post-Conviction Flights
Unnamed women were documented among the passengers flying to and from the UK. Significantly, 15 of these UK flights took place after Epstein’s 2008 guilty verdict for soliciting sex from a underage person.
“It was ‘astonishing’ that there had never been a ‘comprehensive British inquiry’ into his operations in the country,” stated US lawyers representing numerous Epstein survivors.
UK Survivors and Legal Proceedings
A statement from one of the UK-based survivors helped convict Epstein’s accomplice socialite Ghislaine Maxwell of child sex-trafficking in the US in 2021. Yet, that survivor has never been contacted by British law enforcement, as stated by her Florida-based lawyer.
In a response, the the Met said they had “not been provided with any new information that would support restarting the probe.” They added, “Should fresh and pertinent evidence be brought to our attention, encompassing any arising from the release of material in the US, we will review it.”
Continuing Disclosure and Judicial Decisions
A bill to make public every document held by the American government in concerning Epstein passed the House and Senate last month. The Department of Justice has until 19 December to follow through. Hundreds of thousands of files are anticipated to be released.
Additionally, a US judge ruled last week that the department could publicly release evidence from a trafficking prosecution against Maxwell, Epstein’s long-term associate, who is currently serving a 20-year jail term over the allegations.
