Approximately Ninety Air Travels Connected to Jeffrey Epstein Reportedly Arrived at or Departed from British Airfields
An investigation has identified that approximately 90 flights associated to Jeffrey Epstein reportedly touched down at and left UK airfields, with some reportedly transporting women from the UK who claim they were victimized by the found guilty child sex offender.
Flight Logs Uncover Pattern of Movement
The flight logs were part of thousands of legal papers and files released by Epstein’s estate that have been made public over the previous twelve months. The analysis identified 87 flights linked to Epstein – encompassing many that were previously unknown – arriving or departing from British airfields between the start of the 1990s and 2018.
Passenger Details and After Guilty Verdict Flights
Unidentified women were listed among the passengers entering and exiting the UK. Notably, 15 of these British airport journeys took place after Epstein’s 2008 guilty verdict for procuring prostitution from a child.
“It was ‘shocking’ that there had never been a ‘thorough probe in the UK’ into his activities in the country,” said American attorneys representing numerous Epstein victims.
British Victims 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. However, that survivor has not received any contact by British law enforcement, according to her attorney based in Florida.
In a response, the the Met stated they had “not been provided with any additional evidence that would support restarting the inquiry.” They added, “If fresh and pertinent information be brought to our attention, encompassing any resulting from the release of documents in the US, we will assess it.”
Ongoing Document Release and Legal Rulings
Proposed legislation to release all files held by the American government in relation to 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 expected to be released.
In a related development, a US judge ordered last week that the department could make public investigative materials from a trafficking prosecution against Maxwell, Epstein’s longtime confidante, who is currently serving a 20-year jail term over the allegations.
