Virgin Islands sued JPMorgan Chase, accusing the corporation of turning a “blind eye” to Epstein’s conduct. “While JPMorgan has denied knowledge of Epstein’s illegal conduct, I trust that the truth will come to light as the legal process plays out.” “JPMorgan’s apparent failure to act on these signs demonstrates a flagrant disregard for the law and a callous pursuit of profits over the human cost of Epstein’s heinous crimes,” she continued in her letter. Smith asked for more information about the recent reports “to better understand how this slipped past the bank’s internal controls and whether it can be trusted to identify and prevent future criminality in the future.” She also requested details about the bank’s policies to prevent sex trafficking and if Dimon believed those polices “worked effectively” in regard to Epstein. “If true, JPMorgan’s decision to turn a blind eye to such egregious misconduct raises serious questions about its role in facilitating Epstein’s abuse, and its willingness or ability to root out and prevent other, less apparent instances of sex trafficking,” she wrote.
