A former boss of Barclays, who was ousted from the bank over his links to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, will seek to clear his name in court this week.

Jes Staley was forced out in November 2021 after UK regulators ruled he had failed to accurately disclose the nature and length of his relationship with Epstein to the Barclays board.

A cache of emails released by his former employer JP Morgan suggested the relationship was in fact very close.

Email exchanges describe time spent together at Mr Epstein's properties in New York and on his private island in the US Virgin Islands.

You know he is. But the question remains, What about Jeffery that has the Clintons, Hillary and Bill that they have him busted and frosted? Or, What do they suddenly know now that they did not know then? The pure, sheer , terror and Hell they must put those helpless children through.

Epstein felt so guilty about his misdeeds that he hanged himself in a jail cell, or maybe shot himself several times, for all we know, not many details of his demise ever became public knowledge.
