Analysis has identified that close to 90 aircraft journeys linked to Jeffrey Epstein reportedly arrived at and departed from UK airfields, with some reportedly transporting British women who allege they were abused by the found guilty sex offender.

Aviation Records Reveal Pattern of Travel

The travel manifests were part of a trove of legal papers and files made public by Epstein’s estate that have been disclosed over the previous twelve months. The investigation identified 87 flights tied to Epstein – including many that were previously unknown – landing or taking off from British airfields between the start of the 1990s and 2018.

Passenger Details and After Guilty Verdict Flights

Unidentified female passengers were recorded among the passengers travelling into and out of the UK. Significantly, 15 of these British airport journeys happened subsequent to Epstein’s 2008 conviction for soliciting sex from a underage person.

“It was ‘appalling’ that there had never been a ‘full-scale UK investigation’ into his operations in the country,” remarked American attorneys representing hundreds of Epstein survivors.

UK Survivors and Court Cases

Evidence from one of the British victims aided the conviction of Epstein’s accomplice socialite Ghislaine Maxwell of sex trafficking of minors in the US in 2021. Yet, that survivor has not been approached by police in the UK, according to her attorney based in Florida.

In a response, the Metropolitan police stated they had “not been provided with any further evidence that would support reopening the investigation.” They commented, “If fresh and pertinent evidence be presented to us, including any resulting from the disclosure of material in the US, we will evaluate it.”

Ongoing Disclosure and Legal Rulings

Proposed legislation to make public all files held by the American government in relation to Epstein was approved by the US Congress last month. The US justice department has until 19 December to follow through. Hundreds of thousands of papers are expected to be made public.

Separately, a US judge ordered last week that the DOJ could disclose case files from a sex-trafficking case against Maxwell, Epstein’s longtime confidante, who is serving a 20-year jail term over the allegations.
