Flight records show disgraced billionaire Jeffrey Epstein flew to Asia with Bill Clinton – and the former President has confirmed as much.
So where exactly were they going and what were they doing?
The flight logs
According to reports, official logs show Clinton was on board when Epstein’s plane, dubbed the “Lolita Express”, visited destinations such as Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore and China.
It’s claimed that on some flights, Clinton went without his Secret Service detail, however that appears to be disputed.
Clinton has previously released a statement saying he knows nothing about the “terrible crimes” Epstein carried out.
“In 2002 and 2003, President Clinton took a total of four trips on Jeffrey Epstein’s airplane: one to Europe, one to Asia, and two to Africa, which included stops in connection with the work of the Clinton foundation,” the statement said.
“Staff, supporters of the Foundation, and his secret service detail traveled on every leg of the trip.”
Thailand sex club claims
Jeffrey Epstein went on tours of red-light sex clubs in Thailand with Britain’s Prince Andrew, according to reports.
It is said the manager of a venue in Patong saw the Prince visit his topless ‘go-go’ bar during the trip in 2001.
Speaking to The Sunday Mirror, the manager said he was amazed to see the royal there.
“He was not at all fazed and seemed quite relaxed until people realised who he was,” the Manager told the Sunday Mirror.
A regular reportedly said “you certainly wouldn’t get a member of the Thai royal family in a place like this.”
“The area is very raunchy and many of the girls are prostitutes.”
There are also photographs of the Duke of York on a yacht surrounded by topless supermodels off the coast of Phuket.
What is the truth?
It has, of course, been proven that Jeffrey Epstein was a sex offender, but what he was doing on his trips to Asia remains a mystery.
