Close to 90 Flights Linked to Epstein Reportedly Came to or from British Airports
An investigation has identified that nearly 90 flights connected to Jeffrey Epstein reportedly arrived at and departed from UK airports, with some reportedly having onboard British women who claim they were victimized by the found guilty sex offender.
Flight Logs Uncover Pattern of Movement
These aviation records were among a trove of legal papers and files made public by Epsteinâs estate that have been disclosed over the last year. The analysis uncovered 87 flights tied to Epstein â featuring many that were not previously known â landing or taking off from British airfields between the start of the 1990s and 2018.
Passenger Details and After Guilty Verdict Flights
Unidentified âfemalesâ were recorded among the individuals entering and exiting the UK. Notably, 15 of these UK flights happened subsequent to Epsteinâs 2008 conviction for procuring prostitution from a child.
âThis is âshockingâ that there had never been a âfull-scale UK investigationâ into his activities in the country,â stated US lawyers representing numerous Epstein survivors.
UK Survivors and Court Cases
Testimony from one of the UK-based survivors was instrumental in convicting Epsteinâs accomplice socialite Ghislaine Maxwell of child sex-trafficking in the US in 2021. Yet, that victim has not been approached by UK authorities, according to her attorney based in Florida.
In a statement, the the Met indicated they had ânot received any further evidence that would support restarting the inquiry.â They added, âShould new and relevant information be brought to our attention, including any resulting from the disclosure of documents in the US, we will evaluate it.â
Continuing Document Release 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 follow through. A vast number of documents are projected to be made public.
Additionally, a federal judge ruled last week that the department could make public investigative materials from a sex-trafficking case against Maxwell, Epsteinâs longtime confidante, who is currently serving a 20-year jail term over the allegations.
