“Over more than a decade, JPMorgan (JPM) clearly knew it was not complying with federal regulations in regard to Epstein-related accounts as evidenced by its too-little too-late efforts after Epstein was arrested on federal sex trafficking charges and shortly after his death, when JPMorgan (JPM) belatedly complied with federal law,” said the complaint, according to CNN.
The attorney general for the U.S. Virgin Islands has been unexpectedly dismissed from her position by the territorial governor after she filed a lawsuit against banking giant JP Morgan Chase alleging the financial institution covered up for convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operations.
The Post Millennial noted: “The lawsuit that AG Denise George had filed and launched on Wednesday accused JPMorgan Chase, who banked with Epstein starting in 1998, of ‘knowingly providing and pulling the levers through which recruiters and victims were paid.’” The lawsuit also alleged that the bank turned a “blind eye” to Epstein’s abuse of underage girls and sex trafficking.
“The decision by Governor Albert Bryan to fire the A.G. came just days after Bloomberg News revealed that Ms. George in her capacity as V.I. attorney general had filed a lawsuit against JPMorgan Chase — the largest bank in the United States and the world’s largest bank by market capitalization — without first informing Governor Bryan of such a major action, said a person with knowledge of the matter,” the Virgin Islands Consortium reported.
