US Virgin Islands Subpoenas Elon Musk in Lawsuit Against JPMorgan Over Ties to Jeffrey Epstein
- The US Virgin Islands is suing JPMorgan Chase for allegedly enabling Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking ring and has issued a subpoena to Elon Musk seeking documents related to his communications with the bank and Epstein.
- The subpoena requests communications between Musk, JPMorgan, and Epstein regarding Epstein's role in Musk's accounts or financial management as well as documents relating to Epstein's involvement in human trafficking.
- Musk denies ever receiving financial advice from Epstein and says the subpoena is "idiotic," though the Virgin Islands believes Epstein may have referred Musk as a client to JPMorgan.
- The Virgin Islands has also subpoenaed other high-profile individuals like Google co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin in the lawsuit against JPMorgan.
- JPMorgan is accused of ignoring red flags and continuing to provide services to Epstein even after he pleaded guilty to soliciting prostitution from a minor in 2008.
