Nearly Ninety Air Travels Linked to Epstein Allegedly Landed at or Took Off from British Airports
Analysis has uncovered that close to 90 aircraft journeys connected to Jeffrey Epstein are said to have touched down at and left UK airports, with some allegedly transporting women from the UK who allege they were abused by the found guilty sex offender.
Aviation Records Reveal Pattern of Travel
These aviation records were part of thousands of legal papers and files made public by Epstein’s estate that have been disclosed over the previous twelve months. The analysis uncovered 87 flights connected 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 Flights
Unidentified “females” were documented among the individuals entering and exiting the UK. Notably, 15 of these UK flights took place subsequent to Epstein’s 2008 guilty verdict for procuring prostitution from a child.
“It was ‘appalling’ that there had never been a ‘comprehensive British inquiry’ into his dealings in the country,” remarked American attorneys acting for numerous Epstein survivors.
UK Survivors and Legal Proceedings
A statement from one of the British victims aided the conviction of Epstein’s accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell of child sex-trafficking in the US in 2021. But, that individual has not been approached by UK authorities, as stated by her Florida-based lawyer.
In a statement, the London's Metropolitan Police stated they had “not received any further information that would support reopening the investigation.” They commented, “Should new and relevant information be brought to our attention, including any resulting from the disclosure of documents in the US, we will review it.”
Ongoing Disclosure and Judicial Decisions
A bill to release every document held by the US government in concerning Epstein was approved by the House and Senate last month. The US justice department has until 19 December to follow through. Hundreds of thousands of documents are projected to be made public.
In a related development, a federal judge ordered last week that the DOJ could publicly release investigative materials from a trafficking prosecution against Maxwell, Epstein’s long-term associate, who is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence over the allegations.
