A review has uncovered that close to 90 flights linked to Jeffrey Epstein are said to have landed at and took off from British airfields, with some reportedly having onboard British women who assert they were victimized by the convicted child sex offender.

Flight Logs Show Trail of Travel

The flight logs were among a trove of court documents and files released by Epstein’s estate that have been released over the past year. The review uncovered 87 aircraft movements connected to Epstein – including many that were hitherto undisclosed – arriving or departing from UK airports between the start of the 1990s and 2018.

Onboard Individuals and After Guilty Verdict Travel

Unnamed female passengers were listed among the passengers flying to and from the UK. Notably, 15 of these flights involving the UK happened subsequent to Epstein’s 2008 conviction for procuring prostitution from a child.

“This is ‘shocking’ that there had never been a ‘full-scale UK investigation’ into his dealings in the country,” said American attorneys acting for hundreds of Epstein victims.

British Victims and Court Cases

Evidence from one of the UK-based survivors was instrumental in convicting Epstein’s accomplice socialite Ghislaine Maxwell of child sex-trafficking in the US in 2021. But, that individual has not received any contact by police in the UK, according to her attorney based in Florida.

In a statement, the London's Metropolitan Police stated they had “not been provided with any new evidence that would support restarting the probe.” They noted, “Should fresh and pertinent evidence be presented to us, encompassing any arising from the disclosure of material in the US, we will assess it.”

Ongoing Document Release and Legal Rulings

A bill to disclose every document held by the American government in relation to Epstein passed the US Congress last month. The US justice department has until 19 December to comply. Hundreds of thousands of papers are anticipated to be released.

Additionally, a federal judge ruled last week that the department could disclose evidence from a sex-trafficking case against Maxwell, Epstein’s long-term associate, who is serving a 20-year prison sentence over the allegations.
