Analysis has identified that nearly 90 flights connected to Jeffrey Epstein reportedly landed at and took off from British airfields, with some allegedly carrying women from the UK who assert they were exploited by the found guilty sex offender.
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 past year. The analysis found 87 aircraft movements connected to Epstein – featuring many that were hitherto undisclosed – coming into or leaving from British airfields between the early 1990s and 2018.
Unidentified women were listed among the individuals flying to and from the UK. Crucially, 15 of these UK flights happened following Epstein’s 2008 guilty verdict for procuring prostitution from a child.
“This is ‘astonishing’ that there had never been a ‘comprehensive British inquiry’ into his activities in the country,” stated US lawyers representing hundreds of Epstein victims.
A statement from one of the British victims aided the conviction of Epstein’s accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell of child sex-trafficking in the US in 2021. Yet, that victim has not been approached by British law enforcement, according to her attorney based in Florida.
In a statement, the the Met said they had “not been provided with any additional evidence that would support restarting the investigation.” They noted, “If fresh and pertinent information be presented to us, including any arising from the release of documents in the US, we will review it.”
A bill to make public every document held by the American government in regarding Epstein passed the House and Senate last month. The Department of Justice has until 19 December to adhere to this requirement. Hundreds of thousands of papers are anticipated to be released.
Separately, a federal judge ordered last week that the DOJ could disclose evidence from a sex-trafficking case against Maxwell, Epstein’s longtime confidante, who is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence over the charges.
