A review has found that nearly 90 aircraft journeys linked to Jeffrey Epstein reportedly arrived at and departed from British airfields, with some reportedly having onboard women from the UK who assert they were abused by the convicted child sex offender.

Flight Logs Show Trail of Movement

The flight logs were among a trove of court documents and files released by the estate of Jeffrey Epstein that have been released over the past year. The review found 87 aircraft movements connected to Epstein – encompassing many that were previously unknown – arriving or departing from British airfields between the early 1990s and 2018.

Passenger Details and After Guilty Verdict Flights

Unnamed female passengers were listed among the travelers entering and exiting the UK. Notably, 15 of these UK flights happened after Epstein’s 2008 conviction for procuring prostitution 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 acting for numerous Epstein survivors.

British Victims and Legal Proceedings

Testimony from one of the British victims helped convict Epstein’s accomplice socialite Ghislaine Maxwell of child sex-trafficking in the US in 2021. But, that survivor has not received any contact by British law enforcement, as stated by her Florida-based lawyer.

In a statement, the the Met indicated they had “not been provided with any new evidence that would support reopening the investigation.” They added, “If new and relevant evidence be presented to us, including any arising from the disclosure of documents in the US, we will evaluate it.”

Continuing Disclosure and Judicial Decisions

Proposed legislation to release all files held by the American government in relation to Epstein was approved by the US Congress last month. The Department of Justice has until 19 December to comply. Hundreds of thousands of documents are projected to be released.

Separately, a US judge ruled last week that the department could publicly release case files from a trafficking prosecution against Maxwell, Epstein’s longtime confidante, who is currently serving a 20-year jail term over the charges.
