Analysis has found that nearly 90 aircraft journeys associated to Jeffrey Epstein allegedly arrived at and departed from British airports, with some reportedly carrying women from the UK who assert they were abused by the found guilty sex offender.

Aviation Records Reveal Trail of Movement

The flight logs were part of thousands of legal papers and papers made public by the estate of Jeffrey Epstein that have been disclosed over the past year. The analysis identified 87 flights connected to Epstein – featuring many that were previously unknown – landing or taking off from UK airports between the early 1990s and 2018.

Onboard Individuals and After Guilty Verdict Flights

Unnamed “females” were documented among the individuals travelling into and out of the UK. Crucially, 15 of these UK flights took place after Epstein’s 2008 conviction for procuring prostitution from a minor.

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

UK Survivors and Legal Proceedings

A statement from one of the British victims was instrumental in convicting Epstein’s associate Ghislaine Maxwell of sex trafficking of minors in the US in 2021. But, that survivor has never been contacted by UK authorities, according to her attorney based in Florida.

In a response, the London's Metropolitan Police said they had “not been provided with any additional evidence that would support reopening the investigation.” They commented, “Should new and relevant evidence be presented to us, including any arising from the release of material in the US, we will assess it.”

Continuing Document Release and Judicial Decisions

A bill to make public every document held by the American government in concerning Epstein passed the US Congress last month. The Department of Justice has until 19 December to comply. Hundreds of thousands of papers are expected to be released.

In a related development, a US judge ordered last week that the DOJ could publicly release case files from a sex-trafficking case against Maxwell, Epstein’s close friend, who is currently serving a 20-year jail term over the charges.
