ELKINS – The Elkins-Randolph County Regional Airport is mentioned in one of the millions of files released last week from the investigation into millionaire financier Jeffrey Epstein.
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said Friday that the Justice Department would be releasing more than 3 million pages of documents, along with more than 2,000 videos and 180,000 images. The files, posted to the department’s website, include some of the several million pages of records that officials said were withheld from an initial release in December.
An unclassified FBI “Crisis Intake” document, dated July 13, 2019, states that one day earlier, Ron Moon called the FBI National Threat Operations Center Unit to report information related to the Epstein case.
Moon said that in the late autumn of 2005, he worked as a contractor at the Elkins-Randolph County Regional Airport. He said that approximately twice a month, a private jet, a “Learjet 35 or Learjet 32,” would land and refuel at the airport. He said the workers called the plane the “Fantasy Island Flight.”
He said the flight usually came from the Timberline Four Seasons Resort and Blackwater Outdoor Recreation Facility in Tucker County, and would stop at the airport for anywhere from 15 to 90 minutes, according to the document.
Moon is reported to have said the fight’s “stewardesses” were dressed in short pink shorts, see-through shirts, and “black undies.” The girls wore United Airlines badges, but Moon said he knew the girls could not be actual stewardesses, because they needed his help to open the airplane’s door.
“The girls looked to be 16 years old,” the document states. “There were always two girls on every flight, and they were always different.”
Moon reportedly said the young girls would “hang out” with the airport workers and “run around” the hangar. The girls reportedly told Moon that they were on their way to Epstein’s island.
“Sixteen-year old girls are very talkative when they are sitting around having the time of their life,” Moon reportedly said. He added that they were “giggly teenagers” and he found them to be “very entertaining.”
“These were pretty high times for them,” Moon allegedly stated, adding “no one seemed like
they were captive.” The document reports that Moon said “the girls would sometimes travel with Bill Clinton and other Congressmen. These men always tipped Moon and the other employees very well. Moon believes he may still have pictures of these women in his possession.”
The document said that Moon did not know why Epstein “is all over the news,” and was curious
why the FBI was “picking on Epstein.”
West Virginia is referred to 304 times within the Department of Justice’s official Epstein files database.
The Justice Department is resuming disclosures under a law intended to reveal what the government knew about the millionaire financier’s sexual abuse of young girls and his interactions with rich and powerful people such as Donald Trump and Bill Clinton.
Epstein killed himself in a New York jail cell in August 2019, a month after being indicted on federal sex trafficking charges.
