Analysis has uncovered that close to 90 aircraft journeys associated to the late financier Jeffrey Epstein reportedly touched down at and left UK airports, with some allegedly having onboard British women who claim they were exploited by the convicted child sex offender.

Flight Logs Show Pattern of Movement

The travel manifests were among thousands of legal papers and files made public by the estate of Jeffrey Epstein that have been released over the past year. The review uncovered 87 flights connected to Epstein – encompassing many that were previously unknown – landing or taking off from British airfields between the start of the 1990s and 2018.

Onboard Individuals and Post-Conviction Flights

Unnamed “females” were listed among the travelers entering and exiting the UK. Crucially, 15 of these flights involving the UK took place subsequent to Epstein’s 2008 guilty verdict for soliciting sex from a underage person.

“It was ‘astonishing’ that there had never been a ‘comprehensive British inquiry’ into his activities in the country,” stated American attorneys representing numerous Epstein victims.

UK Survivors and Legal Proceedings

Testimony from one of the UK-based survivors was instrumental in convicting Epstein’s associate socialite Ghislaine Maxwell of sex trafficking of minors in the US in 2021. Yet, that victim has not received any contact by police in the UK, according to her Florida-based lawyer.

In a response, the Metropolitan police said they had “not received any additional evidence that would support reopening the probe.” They added, “Should new and relevant information be presented to us, encompassing any arising from the disclosure of documents in the US, we will evaluate it.”

Ongoing Document Release and Legal Rulings

A bill to make public all files held by the American government in relation to Epstein was approved by the House and Senate last month. The US justice department has until 19 December to adhere to this requirement. A vast number of papers are projected to be made public.

Additionally, a US judge decided last week that the department could publicly release evidence from a trafficking prosecution against Maxwell, Epstein’s longtime confidante, who is serving a 20-year prison sentence over the charges.
