Analysis has identified that nearly 90 flights associated to Jeffrey Epstein are said to have arrived at and departed from UK airfields, with some allegedly having onboard British women who allege they were abused by the convicted child sex offender.

Aviation Records Show Trail of Movement

The flight logs were part of thousands of court documents and files made public by the estate of Jeffrey Epstein that have been disclosed over the previous twelve months. The review found 87 aircraft movements linked to Epstein – including many that were hitherto undisclosed – landing or taking off from British airfields between the start of the 1990s and 2018.

Passenger Details and Post-Conviction Travel

Unnamed female passengers were listed among the individuals entering and exiting the UK. Notably, 15 of these UK flights occurred subsequent to Epstein’s 2008 conviction for soliciting sex from a minor.

“This is ‘appalling’ that there had never been a ‘thorough probe in the UK’ into his operations in the country,” stated American attorneys representing numerous Epstein victims.

British Victims and Court Cases

A statement from one of the British victims aided the conviction of Epstein’s accomplice socialite Ghislaine Maxwell of child sex-trafficking in the US in 2021. Yet, that victim has never been contacted by British law enforcement, according to her Florida-based lawyer.

In a response, the the Met stated they had “not received any further information that would support reopening the inquiry.” They added, “Should new and relevant information be brought to our attention, encompassing any arising from the release of material in the US, we will review it.”

Ongoing Document Release and Judicial Decisions

Proposed legislation to release every document held by the American government in regarding Epstein passed the House and Senate last month. The US justice department has until 19 December to comply. Hundreds of thousands of files are projected to be released.

Separately, a federal judge ordered last week that the DOJ could make public case files from a trafficking prosecution against Maxwell, Epstein’s long-term associate, who is serving a 20-year jail term over the charges.
