A review has uncovered that close to 90 flights connected to the late financier Jeffrey Epstein are said to have landed at and took off from UK airfields, with some reportedly transporting women from the UK who claim they were victimized by the convicted sex offender.

Flight Logs Show Trail of Travel

These aviation records were part of a trove of court documents and files made public by Epstein’s estate that have been disclosed over the past year. The analysis found 87 aircraft movements connected to Epstein – featuring many that were previously unknown – landing or taking off from UK airports between the early 1990s and 2018.

Passenger Details and After Guilty Verdict Travel

Unidentified female passengers were recorded among the travelers flying to and from the UK. Notably, 15 of these UK flights happened subsequent to Epstein’s 2008 guilty verdict for procuring prostitution from a minor.

“This is ‘astonishing’ that there had never been a ‘full-scale UK investigation’ into his operations in the country,” said American attorneys acting for hundreds of Epstein victims.

UK Survivors and Court Cases

A statement from one of the UK-based survivors aided the conviction of Epstein’s associate Ghislaine Maxwell of child sex-trafficking in the US in 2021. But, that individual has not been approached by British law enforcement, according to her attorney based in Florida.

In a statement, the London's Metropolitan Police indicated they had “not received any additional information that would support restarting the probe.” They commented, “Should fresh and pertinent information be brought to our attention, encompassing any resulting from the disclosure of material in the US, we will assess it.”

Continuing Document Release and Legal Rulings

A bill to release every document held by the American government in regarding Epstein passed the US Congress last month. The Department of Justice has until 19 December to follow through. Hundreds of thousands of papers are projected to be released.

Additionally, a US judge ordered last week that the department could disclose evidence from a trafficking prosecution against Maxwell, Epstein’s longtime confidante, who is currently serving a 20-year jail term over the allegations.
