JPMorgan lawyers claim Virgin Islands Democrats allowed Epstein to go unchecked and received favors and money.

JPMorgan Chase Accuses U.S. Virgin Islands Officials of “Quid Pro Quo” Relationship with Jeffrey Epstein

Attorneys for investment bank JPMorgan Chase accused Democratic officials in the U.S. Virgin Islands of engaging in “quid pro quo” relationships with late financier Jeffrey Epstein in an explosive Tuesday legal filing shared with The Daily Wire.

According to a lawsuit filed by the U.S. Virgin Islands against JPMorgan Chase, the financial institution financially benefited from Epstein’s underage sex trafficking schemes. However, JPMorgan Chase’s legal filing alleged that the government of the territory was the entity which “most directly failed to protect public safety” and “most actively facilitated” the criminal activity.

“Epstein could have lived anywhere in the world. He chose USVI,” the document said. “Discovery obtained in this case reveals why. For two decades, Epstein maintained a quid pro quo relationship with USVI’s highest ranking officials.”

The court document accused U.S. Virgin Islands non-voting delegate to Congress, Stacey Plaskett, of meeting with Epstein in his Manhattan townhouse less than a year before his arrest in 2019. Attorneys added that U.S. Virgin Islands First Lady Cecile De Jongh allegedly helped to foster a political culture in the Democratic Party of the Virgin Islands which “allowed Epstein to remain unchecked in exchange for his sponsorship and financial contributions.”

JPMorgan Chase continued their relationship with Epstein even after he pleaded guilty to two counts of soliciting prostitution from a teenage girl in 2008. The disgraced financier had a deeper relationship with employees of the investment bank than the company previously admitted, according to a recent report from The Wall Street Journal.
