Approximately Ninety Air Travels Linked to Epstein Allegedly Landed at or Took Off from UK Airfields
An investigation has identified that approximately 90 aircraft journeys associated to Jeffrey Epstein allegedly touched down at and left UK airfields, with some reportedly carrying women from the UK who assert they were exploited by the found guilty sex offender.
Flight Logs Reveal Pattern of Travel
The travel manifests were among thousands of legal papers and papers made public by the estate of Jeffrey Epstein that have been made public over the previous twelve months. The investigation identified 87 flights tied to Epstein – encompassing many that were hitherto undisclosed – landing or taking off from British airfields between the early 1990s and 2018.
Passenger Details and Post-Conviction Travel
Unidentified women were documented among the passengers entering and exiting the UK. Notably, 15 of these UK flights happened subsequent to Epstein’s 2008 guilty verdict for procuring prostitution from a underage person.
“This is ‘shocking’ that there had never been a ‘comprehensive British inquiry’ into his operations in the country,” stated American attorneys representing numerous Epstein survivors.
UK Survivors and Legal Proceedings
Testimony from one of the UK-based survivors aided the conviction of Epstein’s associate Ghislaine Maxwell of child sex-trafficking in the US in 2021. Yet, that survivor has not been approached by police in the UK, according to her Florida-based lawyer.
In a statement, the the Met indicated they had “not been provided with any further information that would support reopening the inquiry.” They added, “If fresh and pertinent evidence be presented to us, encompassing any resulting from the release of material in the US, we will assess it.”
Ongoing Disclosure and Judicial Decisions
A bill to disclose every document held by the US government in concerning Epstein passed the House and Senate last month. The US justice department has until 19 December to follow through. A vast number of documents are expected to be released.
Separately, a US judge ordered last week that the department could disclose evidence from a sex-trafficking case against Maxwell, Epstein’s longtime confidante, who is serving a 20-year jail term over the charges.
