Approximately 90 Air Travels Linked to Epstein Allegedly Landed at or Took Off from British Airports
An investigation has uncovered that approximately 90 aircraft journeys linked to Jeffrey Epstein allegedly touched down at and left British airports, with some reportedly having onboard British women who claim they were victimized by the convicted sex offender.
Aviation Records Reveal Pattern of Travel
The flight logs were part of thousands of court documents and files released by the estate of Jeffrey Epstein that have been made public over the past year. The analysis found 87 flights linked to Epstein – including many that were hitherto undisclosed – landing or taking off from UK airports between the start of the 1990s and 2018.
Passenger Details and After Guilty Verdict Travel
Unidentified female passengers were documented among the passengers entering and exiting the UK. Significantly, 15 of these UK flights took place after Epstein’s 2008 guilty verdict for procuring prostitution from a minor.
“This is ‘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 Legal Proceedings
A statement from one of the UK-based survivors aided the conviction of Epstein’s associate socialite Ghislaine Maxwell of sex trafficking of minors in the US in 2021. But, that victim has not received any contact by police in the UK, as stated by her Florida-based lawyer.
In a statement, the Metropolitan police stated they had “not been provided with any new information that would support reopening the inquiry.” They commented, “Should new and relevant information be brought to our attention, encompassing any arising from the release of material in the US, we will evaluate it.”
Continuing Document Release and Judicial Decisions
A bill to release every document held by the American government in concerning Epstein passed the US Congress last month. The Department of Justice has until 19 December to follow through. A vast number of papers are expected to be released.
Separately, a US judge decided last week that the department could disclose investigative materials from a sex-trafficking case against Maxwell, Epstein’s longtime confidante, who is currently serving a 20-year jail term over the allegations.
