A review has identified that close to 90 flights linked to Jeffrey Epstein reportedly landed at and took off from British airfields, with some reportedly having onboard women from the UK who claim they were abused by the convicted child sex offender.

Flight Logs Show Trail of Travel

The flight logs were among a trove of legal papers and files released by the estate of Jeffrey Epstein that have been made public over the past year. The investigation uncovered 87 aircraft movements linked to Epstein – featuring many that were previously unknown – arriving or departing from British airfields between the start of the 1990s and 2018.

Passenger Details and Post-Conviction Flights

Unidentified “females” were listed among the passengers flying to and from the UK. Significantly, 15 of these British airport journeys happened following Epstein’s 2008 guilty verdict for procuring prostitution from a minor.

“It was ‘shocking’ that there had never been a ‘thorough probe in the UK’ into his activities in the country,” remarked American attorneys representing numerous Epstein survivors.

British Victims and Court Cases

A statement from one of the UK-based survivors helped convict Epstein’s accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell of child sex-trafficking in the US in 2021. But, that individual has not been approached by police in the UK, as stated by her Florida-based lawyer.

In a response, the the Met stated they had “not been provided with any additional evidence that would support restarting the probe.” They commented, “Should fresh and pertinent evidence be presented to us, including any resulting from the release of documents in the US, we will review it.”

Ongoing Disclosure and Judicial Decisions

A bill to make public every document held by the US government in regarding Epstein was approved by the House and Senate last month. The US justice department has until 19 December to adhere to this requirement. Hundreds of thousands of files are anticipated to be released.

Additionally, a US judge ordered last week that the DOJ could publicly release investigative materials from a sex-trafficking case against Maxwell, Epstein’s long-term associate, who is serving a 20-year prison sentence over the allegations.
