Nearly 90 Air Travels Associated to Epstein Allegedly Landed at or Took Off from UK Airports
Analysis has identified that close to 90 flights linked to Jeffrey Epstein are said to have arrived at and departed from British airports, with some allegedly having onboard British women who assert they were abused by the found guilty sex offender.
Flight Logs Uncover Trail of Movement
These aviation records were part of a trove of court documents and papers released by the estate of Jeffrey Epstein that have been disclosed over the previous twelve months. The investigation uncovered 87 flights tied to Epstein – encompassing many that were previously unknown – landing or taking off from UK airports between the early 1990s and 2018.
Onboard Individuals and After Guilty Verdict Travel
Unnamed female passengers were listed among the individuals flying to and from the UK. Crucially, 15 of these British airport journeys occurred following Epstein’s 2008 guilty verdict for procuring prostitution from a underage person.
“This is ‘shocking’ that there had never been a ‘thorough probe in the UK’ into his dealings in the country,” stated American attorneys acting for numerous Epstein victims.
British Victims and Court Cases
Testimony from one of the UK-based survivors helped convict Epstein’s accomplice socialite Ghislaine Maxwell of sex trafficking of minors in the US in 2021. Yet, that victim has never been contacted by British law enforcement, according to her attorney based in Florida.
In a response, the Metropolitan police stated they had “not received any new evidence that would support reopening the investigation.” They commented, “If new and relevant information be presented to us, including any resulting from the release of documents in the US, we will assess it.”
Continuing Document Release and Judicial Decisions
A bill to make public every document held by the American government in relation to Epstein passed the US Congress last month. The US justice department has until 19 December to comply. A vast number of files are projected to be made public.
Separately, a US judge ordered last week that the department could make public investigative materials from a sex-trafficking case against Maxwell, Epstein’s long-term associate, who is serving a 20-year prison sentence over the charges.
