Close to Ninety Air Travels Connected to Epstein Reportedly Arrived at or Departed from UK Airfields
Analysis has identified that nearly 90 aircraft journeys associated to the late financier Jeffrey Epstein allegedly landed at and took off from British airfields, with some allegedly having onboard British women who assert they were abused by the found guilty child sex offender.
Flight Logs Show Trail of Movement
The flight logs were part of a trove of court documents and files made public by the estate of Jeffrey Epstein that have been released over the previous twelve months. The analysis identified 87 aircraft movements linked to Epstein – featuring many that were not previously known – arriving or departing from British airfields between the start of the 1990s and 2018.
Passenger Details and After Guilty Verdict Travel
Unidentified female passengers were recorded among the travelers travelling into and out of the UK. Notably, 15 of these British airport journeys happened following 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 activities in the country,” said US lawyers acting for numerous Epstein survivors.
British Victims and Legal Proceedings
A statement from one of the British victims aided the conviction of Epstein’s accomplice socialite Ghislaine Maxwell of child sex-trafficking in the US in 2021. But, that survivor has never been contacted by UK authorities, as stated by her Florida-based lawyer.
In a response, the London's Metropolitan Police said they had “not received any additional information that would support reopening the investigation.” They commented, “Should fresh and pertinent evidence be presented to us, including any arising from the disclosure of material in the US, we will assess it.”
Ongoing Disclosure and Judicial Decisions
Proposed legislation to make public all files 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. A vast number of papers are projected to be released.
Additionally, a US judge decided last week that the DOJ could publicly release investigative materials from a sex-trafficking case against Maxwell, Epstein’s long-term associate, who is serving a 20-year prison sentence over the allegations.
