Nearly 90 Flights Connected to Epstein Allegedly Came to or from British Airfields
Analysis has uncovered that nearly 90 flights associated to Jeffrey Epstein allegedly landed at and took off from British airports, with some reportedly carrying women from the UK who assert they were exploited by the found guilty sex offender.
Aviation Records Show Trail of Travel
The travel manifests were part of thousands of court documents and files released by the estate of Jeffrey Epstein that have been disclosed over the previous twelve months. The investigation identified 87 flights connected to Epstein – featuring many that were previously unknown – arriving or departing from British airfields between the early 1990s and 2018.
Passenger Details and Post-Conviction Flights
Unidentified female passengers were listed among the travelers entering and exiting the UK. Notably, 15 of these British airport journeys took place following Epstein’s 2008 guilty verdict for soliciting sex from a minor.
“This is ‘appalling’ that there had never been a ‘thorough probe in the UK’ into his activities in the country,” remarked US lawyers acting for hundreds of Epstein survivors.
UK Survivors and Legal Proceedings
A statement from one of the British victims helped convict Epstein’s associate socialite Ghislaine Maxwell of child sex-trafficking in the US in 2021. Yet, that individual has never been contacted by UK authorities, according to her attorney based in Florida.
In a response, the Metropolitan police said they had “not received any new information that would support restarting the inquiry.” They added, “Should new and relevant information be brought to our attention, encompassing any arising from the disclosure of material in the US, we will review it.”
Ongoing Disclosure and Legal Rulings
A bill to disclose every document held by the US government in relation to Epstein passed the House and Senate last month. The Department of Justice has until 19 December to adhere to this requirement. A vast number of documents are anticipated to be made public.
Additionally, a federal judge ruled last week that the DOJ could make public evidence from a sex-trafficking case against Maxwell, Epstein’s longtime confidante, who is serving a 20-year prison sentence over the charges.
