JPMorgan and US Virgin Islands face reckoning as more high-profile names emerge in Jeffrey Epstein scandal
- Government officials are investigating other wealthy individuals connected to Jeffrey Epstein as part of an ongoing lawsuit against JPMorgan Chase, Epstein’s bank of 15 years.
- The US Virgin Islands government is accusing JPMorgan of enabling Epstein to carry out years of abuse and sex trafficking of underage girls on his private islands within the territory.
- JPMorgan claims the Virgin Islands government was complicit in shielding Epstein in exchange for his donations and allowed him to remain unchecked.
- Depositions of high-profile names like JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon, Virgin Islands Governor Albert Bryan Jr., and Tesla CEO Elon Musk show the far-reaching impact of Epstein's crimes.
- Former JPMorgan executive Jes Staley could face legal consequences for allegedly hiding Epstein's abuse to maintain him as a client, though Staley denies any wrongdoing.
