Analysis has identified that nearly 90 flights connected to Jeffrey Epstein reportedly landed at and took off from UK airports, with some allegedly carrying British women who claim they were exploited by the found guilty sex offender.

Flight Logs Uncover Pattern of Travel

The travel manifests were part of a trove of legal papers and papers released by the estate of Jeffrey Epstein that have been made public over the last year. The analysis uncovered 87 aircraft movements tied to Epstein – encompassing many that were hitherto undisclosed – coming into or leaving from British airfields between the start of the 1990s and 2018.

Passenger Details and Post-Conviction Flights

Unnamed female passengers were documented among the passengers 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 underage person.

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

British Victims and Legal Proceedings

Evidence from one of the British victims helped convict Epstein’s accomplice socialite Ghislaine Maxwell of sex trafficking of minors in the US in 2021. But, that individual has not received any contact by police in the UK, according to her Florida-based lawyer.

In a statement, the London's Metropolitan Police said they had “not received any new information that would support reopening the investigation.” They commented, “If fresh and pertinent evidence be presented to us, including any resulting from the release of documents in the US, we will review it.”

Continuing Disclosure and Legal Rulings

Proposed legislation to make public all files held by the American government in relation to Epstein passed the House and Senate last month. The US justice department has until 19 December to comply. Hundreds of thousands of papers are expected to be released.

Separately, a US judge ruled last week that the department could make public evidence from a sex-trafficking case against Maxwell, Epstein’s long-term associate, who is serving a 20-year jail term over the charges.
