The USVI, in its legal filings, demanded that JPMorgan produce documents related to more than $1.1 million in Epstein-associated payments processed by the bank after Epstein ceased being a client in 2013. The government contends these transactions include continued financial flows to his associates and possibly the victims themselves, well beyond the bank’s termination of Epstein’s accounts—and even after he was a convicted sex offender. This pursuit of documentation underscores the territory’s allegations that JPMorgan maintained an operational pipeline that sustained parts of Epstein’s trafficking network despite ostensibly cutting ties with him
These alleged post-retention payments are crucial to the USVI’s broader argument: that JPMorgan’s oversight and compliance failures enabled Epstein’s sex trafficking enterprise. According to filings, the bank continued to handle suspicious payments—including to individuals previously flagged as recruiters or trafficked individuals—arguing that JPMorgan should have recognized red flags and severed all related financial activity promptly rather than allowing it to persist in defiance of legal and ethical obligations.
