Approximately 90 Air Travels Connected to Jeffrey Epstein Allegedly Came to or from British Airfields
Analysis has identified that approximately 90 aircraft journeys connected to Jeffrey Epstein reportedly touched down at and left British airfields, with some reportedly transporting British women who claim they were abused by the convicted sex offender.
Aviation Records Uncover Pattern of Travel
These aviation records were among thousands of court documents and files released by the estate of Jeffrey Epstein that have been released over the last year. The review uncovered 87 aircraft movements tied to Epstein – including many that were hitherto undisclosed – coming into or leaving from British airfields between the early 1990s and 2018.
Passenger Details and After Guilty Verdict Travel
Unnamed women were listed among the travelers travelling into and out of the UK. Notably, 15 of these British airport journeys occurred following Epstein’s 2008 guilty verdict for soliciting sex from a minor.
“It was ‘astonishing’ that there had never been a ‘thorough probe in the UK’ into his operations in the country,” remarked American attorneys acting for hundreds of Epstein survivors.
British Victims and Legal Proceedings
Evidence from one of the British victims helped convict Epstein’s associate Ghislaine Maxwell of sex trafficking of minors in the US in 2021. However, that survivor has not been approached by police in the UK, according to her Florida-based lawyer.
In a response, the Metropolitan police said they had “not been provided with any further evidence that would support restarting the probe.” They noted, “Should fresh and pertinent evidence be brought to our attention, including any arising from the release of material in the US, we will assess it.”
Continuing Disclosure and Judicial Decisions
A bill to make public all files held by the American 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 papers are expected to be made public.
Additionally, a US judge ruled last week that the DOJ could make public investigative materials from a sex-trafficking case against Maxwell, Epstein’s close friend, who is serving a 20-year jail term over the allegations.
