Virgin Islands prosecutor fired after accusing JPMorgan of aiding Epstein’s sex trafficking ring
Washington Times ^ | 3 January 2023 | Matt Delaney

The top prosecutor for the U.S. Virgin Islands was fired days after she accused JPMorgan Chase in a federal lawsuit of facilitating Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking activities.

Virgin Islands Gov. Albert Bryan fired Attorney General Denise George on Saturday, according to the Virgin Islands Consortium.

“I relieved Denise George of her duties as attorney general this weekend,” Mr. Bryan wrote in a statement acquired by Law Crime. “I thank her for her service to the people of the territory during the past four years as attorney general and wish her the best in her future endeavors.”

The governor didn’t share with the network why he fired Ms. George. But the Consortium reported that the prosecutor was let go because she didn’t consult with Mr. Bryan before taking legal action against JPMorgan.

Ms. George’s lawsuit claimed that the largest bank in the U.S. played a part in Epstein’s abuse of women and girls. The company’s senior leadership overlooked Epstein’s scheme because of the high-profile clients that could be directed to the bank, according to the legal filings.

The lawsuit claimed that JPMorgan‘s anti-money laundering protocols should have reported Epstein’s illegal activity to the authorities.

“JPMorgan knowingly, negligently and unlawfully provided and pulled the levers through which recruiters and victims were paid and was indispensable to the operation and concealment of the Epstein trafficking enterprise,” the lawsuit reads.

The lawsuit also argued that “human trafficking was the principal business of the accounts Epstein maintained at JPMorgan.”

The bank is accused of violating the Trafficking Victims Protection Act and the Virgin Islands Criminally Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act.

Epstein was a client of JPMorgan Chase from 2000 to 2013. The convicted sex offender killed himself in 2019 in his Manhattan jail cell while awaiting trial for sex trafficking charges.

There are places one does not go when the Democrats hold the White House.

When a Republican is President, the sky's the limit.

Either bribe money or perversion. Other possibilities drop dramatically on the probability scale.

One other highly probable one is that Biden got her fired, just like he did with the Ukraine prosecutor.

Don't forget--Biden has been in the Virgin Islands on "vacation."

“Bribe money” covers that scenario.

Come to think of it, one doesn’t exclude the other.
He might be hiding bribe money and perversion.

We all know “Pedo Pete” Joe Biden is.

Yeah, JP Morgan would never do anything that shady.

3-Count Felon, JPMorgan Chase, Caught Laundering More Dirty Money

Two of those counts related to money laundering and failure to file suspicious activity reports on the business bank account it held for Bernie Madoff for decades.

The third felony count brought by the U.S. Department of Justice came one year later, in 2015. It related to JPMorgan’s involvement in a bank cartel that was engaged in rigging foreign exchange trading.

The bank is currently under a criminal investigation for allowing its precious metals desk to be turned into a racketeering enterprise according to the Justice Department.

JPMorgan Chase was involved in moving illicit funds for the fugitive, Jho Low, involving the notorious looting of public funds in Malaysia. ... JPMorgan Chase moved $1.2 billion in money for Jho Low from 2013 to 2016, according to the report.
