(NewsNation) — Former President Donald Trump reportedly recently took several trips in a blue Gulfstream jet previously owned by Jeffrey Epstein.
According to the Miami Herald, Trump’s campaign took the Gulfstream G550 plane to several fundraisers over the weekend. The Gulfstream jet once carried Epstein, who owned it until his death in 2019.
According to campaign officials, Trump’s staff had “no idea” the Gulfstream was once owned by Epstein. The official told the Daily Beast a charter flight company provided the jet.
“The campaign had absolutely no idea the aircraft we rented was previously owned by Mr. Epstein,” the official said, adding that Trump’s team only knew about the jet’s owner from the media.
Epstein was found dead in his jail cell of an apparent suicide in 2019. He was awaiting trial for allegedly orchestrating a child sex trafficking ring along with his accomplice and former girlfriend, Ghislaine Maxwell.
Here is a timeline of the criminal cases against Epstein.
