Close to Ninety Air Travels Associated to Epstein Reportedly Landed at or Took Off from British Airfields
Analysis has found that close to 90 aircraft journeys linked to Jeffrey Epstein are said to have arrived at and departed from UK airports, with some reportedly having onboard women from the UK who allege they were victimized by the found guilty child sex offender.
Aviation Records Reveal Pattern of Movement
The flight logs were among thousands of court documents and papers released by Epstein’s estate that have been released over the past year. The analysis identified 87 aircraft movements linked to Epstein – including many that were not previously known – landing or taking off from British airfields between the start of the 1990s and 2018.
Onboard Individuals and Post-Conviction Flights
Unnamed female passengers were listed among the travelers travelling into and out of the UK. Crucially, 15 of these UK flights happened after Epstein’s 2008 guilty verdict for soliciting sex from a underage person.
“It was ‘shocking’ that there had never been a ‘thorough probe in the UK’ into his dealings in the country,” stated American attorneys representing numerous Epstein victims.
UK Survivors and Legal Proceedings
A statement from one of the UK-based survivors was instrumental in convicting Epstein’s accomplice socialite Ghislaine Maxwell of sex trafficking of minors in the US in 2021. Yet, that victim has not been approached by UK authorities, as stated by her attorney based in Florida.
In a statement, the the Met indicated they had “not been provided with any further evidence that would support restarting the investigation.” They added, “If fresh and pertinent information be brought to our attention, encompassing any arising from the disclosure of documents in the US, we will assess it.”
Continuing Disclosure and Legal Rulings
A bill to release every document held by the US government in relation to Epstein was approved by the House and Senate last month. The US justice department has until 19 December to adhere to this requirement. Hundreds of thousands of files are projected to be made public.
In a related development, a US judge decided last week that the DOJ could publicly release evidence from a trafficking prosecution against Maxwell, Epstein’s longtime confidante, who is serving a 20-year jail term over the allegations.
