Approximately Ninety Air Travels Associated to Epstein Allegedly Came to or from UK Airports
Analysis has uncovered that approximately 90 aircraft journeys associated to Jeffrey Epstein are said to have landed at and took off from UK airports, with some allegedly carrying women from the UK who allege they were victimized by the convicted sex offender.
Aviation Records Uncover Pattern of Movement
These aviation records were among thousands of court documents and files made public by Epstein’s estate that have been disclosed over the previous twelve months. The review uncovered 87 flights tied to Epstein – featuring many that were hitherto undisclosed – arriving or departing from British airfields between the start of the 1990s and 2018.
Onboard Individuals and After Guilty Verdict Travel
Unidentified “females” were recorded among the individuals flying to and from the UK. Notably, 15 of these British airport journeys took place subsequent to Epstein’s 2008 guilty verdict for procuring prostitution from a underage person.
“It was ‘shocking’ that there had never been a ‘comprehensive British inquiry’ into his dealings in the country,” stated US lawyers acting for numerous Epstein victims.
UK Survivors and Court Cases
Testimony from one of the British victims was instrumental in convicting Epstein’s accomplice socialite Ghislaine Maxwell of child sex-trafficking in the US in 2021. However, that victim has not been approached by UK authorities, as stated by her Florida-based lawyer.
In a statement, the Metropolitan police indicated they had “not received any further evidence that would support restarting the inquiry.” They added, “Should fresh and pertinent evidence be brought to our attention, encompassing any arising from the release of material in the US, we will review it.”
Continuing Disclosure and Judicial Decisions
A bill to release every document held by the American government in concerning Epstein passed the US Congress last month. The Department of Justice has until 19 December to adhere to this requirement. A vast number of files are expected to be released.
Separately, a US judge ruled last week that the department could publicly release investigative materials from a sex-trafficking case against Maxwell, Epstein’s longtime confidante, who is serving a 20-year prison sentence over the charges.
