JPMorgan CEO and Google founder set to be ousted for two days over bank’s ties to Epstein

JPMorgan Chase CEO and Google co-founder are both being asked to testify about Jeffrey Epstein’s financial interests as prosecutors in the US Virgin Islands continue to try to unravel the late pedophile’s financial web.

Epstein, 66, died in August 2019 in a Manhattan jail awaiting trial for sex trafficking. His accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell was convicted in June 2022.

The Attorney General of the US Virgin Islands, where he had a home on a private island, oversees the distribution of funds from a compensation scheme set up to help his dozens of victims.

Denise George has requested JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon to testify about his bank’s dealings with Epstein, and sources close to the investigation confirmed that CNN Thursday that Dimon will testify on May 26 and 27.

The U.S. Virgin Islands is seeking unspecified damages from the largest U.S. bank for Epstein’s alleged abuse of young girls and women on Little St. James, a private island he owned.

George is also seeking testimony from Larry Page, who co-founded Google.

Epstein reportedly tried to recruit Page as a client of JPMorgan.

The summons, obtained by The everyday beastalso requests correspondence between Page and Epstein, and Page and JPMorgan; documents showing fees paid by Page to Epstein or JPMorgan; and reports of “Epstein’s involvement in human trafficking and/or his acquisition of girls or women for commercial sex.”

On Thursday, George requested permission to subpoena Page via “alternative service” — usually by mail or public notice — because they had been unsuccessfully trying to track him down and subpoena him in person for the past month. George said they hired private investigators but still couldn’t find him.

In 2021, the reclusive billionaire would be living off-the-grid in Fiji; some reports said he had since moved to New Zealand.

Last month, Page’s Google co-founder Sergey Brin was subpoenaed by George, along with billionaires Mortimer Zuckerman and Thomas Pritzker.

For several years, Dimon has faced questions about his bank’s dealings with Epstein.

Last month, a complaint filed in New York alleged that JPMorgan Chase executives were aware of numerous sexual assault and human trafficking allegations against Epstein, and had overlooked them for years.

Epstein was investigated by Miami prosecutors in 2005 for his sexual abuse of children.

In 2008, Epstein pleaded guilty to a charge of incitement to prostitution involving a minor, and was sentenced to 18 months in prison; he served 13, under extremely lenient terms.

JPMorgan did not cut ties with Epstein for another five years, until 2013.

“JPMorgan’s relationship with Epstein in giving his sex trafficking firm access to large sums of money each year went far beyond a normal (and lawful) banking relationship,” the filing reads.

The complaint contains detailed internal warnings that the financier ‘has to go’, that there was ‘a lot of smoke’. Lots of questions,” and those anti-money laundering officials asked the bank to “end this relationship.”

The complaint added an additional count alleging that JPMorgan obstructed federal law enforcement and prosecution agencies pursuing Epstein.

Dimon, who was asked last month if his bank should have shut down Epstein sooner, told CNN, “In hindsight is a wonderful gift.”
