Tennessee’s Republican Senator Marsha Blackburn is pushing hard for a subpoena against the estate of the late Jeffrey Epstein to get the flight logs from his private plane.
This is important because Epstein was involved in serious allegations of human trafficking and abuse.
Senator Blackburn made her case clear in a press release.
She believes it’s crucial to find out who was involved with Epstein.
She’s known for tackling tough issues head-on and insists on the truth.
This request came up during a Senate meeting about Supreme Court ethics, led by Senator Dick Durbin, a Democrat from Illinois.
But Blackburn shifted the focus, suggesting subpoenas, especially one for Epstein’s estate.
She emphasizes the need to know who flew on Epstein’s plane, how often, and where they went. This is part of her effort to bring everything into the open.
Jeffrey Epstein, who died in a New York jail in 2019, was facing serious charges of running a network of underage girls for sex. He denied these charges before his death at 66.
Epstein had at least three jets, including the “Lolita Express,” which is said to have carried well-known people and girls around the world.
The flight logs of this jet could reveal the names of these people.
In 2021, during the trial of Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s alleged partner, thousands of flight records were released.
Despite Maxwell’s not guilty plea, she was convicted. These records could show others who might have been involved.
The flight logs, spanning 118 pages, are believed to include names, dates, and places of travel.
They have led to claims that famous individuals, like Bill Gates, Prince Andrew, and Donald Trump, traveled with Epstein.
Reports also suggest that former President Bill Clinton, supermodel Naomi Campbell, and astronaut John Glenn appeared in these flight records.
Epstein’s jets mainly flew between his homes in New York, Palm Beach, Paris, New Mexico, and the Virgin Islands.
Senator Blackburn’s determination to get this subpoena shows her commitment to finding out the truth.
She stands firm on principles of justice and holding people accountable.
