Close to 90 Flights Associated to Epstein Allegedly Came to or from UK Airfields

Analysis has uncovered that nearly 90 aircraft journeys connected to Jeffrey Epstein reportedly landed at and took off from UK airfields, with some allegedly having onboard British women who claim they were abused by the convicted sex offender.

Flight Logs Uncover Trail of Travel

The flight logs were part of a trove of legal papers and papers made public by the estate of Jeffrey Epstein that have been disclosed over the last year. The review uncovered 87 aircraft movements tied to Epstein – encompassing many that were not previously known – arriving or departing from British airfields between the start of the 1990s and 2018.

Passenger Details and Post-Conviction Travel

Unnamed female passengers were recorded among the passengers flying to and from the UK. Notably, 15 of these UK flights occurred after Epstein’s 2008 conviction for procuring prostitution from a minor.

“It was ‘appalling’ that there had never been a ‘full-scale UK investigation’ into his operations in the country,” stated American attorneys representing numerous Epstein survivors.

British Victims and Legal Proceedings

Testimony from one of the British victims aided the conviction of Epstein’s associate socialite Ghislaine Maxwell of sex trafficking of minors in the US in 2021. However, 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 additional evidence that would support restarting the inquiry.” They noted, “If new and relevant evidence be presented to us, encompassing any resulting from the disclosure of material in the US, we will assess it.”

Ongoing Document Release and Legal Rulings

Proposed legislation to make public every document held by the American government in relation to Epstein was approved by the US Congress last month. The US justice department has until 19 December to follow through. Hundreds of thousands of documents are expected to be made public.

Separately, a US judge ruled last week that the DOJ could make public evidence from a sex-trafficking case against Maxwell, Epstein’s close friend, who is currently serving a 20-year jail term over the charges.
