Approximately Ninety Flights Linked to Jeffrey Epstein Allegedly Landed at or Took Off from UK Airfields
Analysis has uncovered that close to 90 flights connected to the late financier Jeffrey Epstein are said to have landed at and took off from UK airports, with some reportedly carrying British women who assert they were abused by the convicted child sex offender.
Aviation Records Uncover Pattern of Movement
These aviation records were part of thousands of court documents and papers released by the estate of Jeffrey Epstein that have been disclosed over the previous twelve months. The investigation found 87 flights tied to Epstein – including many that were hitherto undisclosed – arriving or departing from British airfields between the start of the 1990s and 2018.
Passenger Details and After Guilty Verdict Travel
Unnamed women were recorded among the passengers flying to and from the UK. Notably, 15 of these British airport journeys happened following Epstein’s 2008 guilty verdict for procuring prostitution from a child.
“It was ‘astonishing’ that there had never been a ‘full-scale UK investigation’ into his activities in the country,” remarked American attorneys representing numerous Epstein survivors.
British Victims and Court Cases
Evidence from one of the British victims was instrumental in convicting Epstein’s associate socialite Ghislaine Maxwell of child sex-trafficking in the US in 2021. But, that survivor has never been contacted by British law enforcement, according to her Florida-based lawyer.
In a statement, the the Met stated they had “not received any new evidence that would support reopening the probe.” They noted, “If new and relevant information be presented to us, including any arising from the disclosure of material in the US, we will evaluate it.”
Continuing Disclosure and Legal Rulings
Proposed legislation 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 comply. A vast number of files are anticipated to be made public.
In a related development, a federal judge decided last week that the department could publicly release case files from a trafficking prosecution against Maxwell, Epstein’s longtime confidante, who is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence over the charges.
