Weeks after Jeffrey Epstein died in federal custody in 2019 awaiting prosecution on sex-trafficking charges, JPMorgan Chase filed a report alerting the U.S. government to tens of millions of dollars of potentially suspicious transactions involving him and prominent Wall Street and business figures.
The so-called suspicious activity report that JPMorgan filed identified transactions with Leon Black, the co-founder of private equity firm Apollo Global Management; Glenn Dubin, a well-known hedge fund manager; the lawyer Alan Dershowitz; and trusts controlled by Leslie Wexner, the retail tycoon.
The nature of the transactions, as well as Mr. Epstein’s role in them, is unclear.
JPMorgan said in its report that it was flagging about 4,700 transactions, totaling more than $1 billion, because they were potentially related to reports of human trafficking involving Mr. Epstein. It also mentioned Mr. Epstein’s wire transfers to Russian banks and sensitivities around “his relationships with two U.S. presidents.” Mr. Epstein at times was close with President Trump and former President Bill Clinton.
None of the men mentioned in the report have been charged with crimes in connection to Mr. Epstein.
The report was included in hundreds of pages of previously sealed court records that JPMorgan released on Thursday at the instruction of a federal judge, Jed S. Rakoff. He ordered the documents unsealed in response to requests from The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal.

Me? And the New York Times, apparently?
$1 billion in suspicious transactions reported
“The nature of the transactions, as well as Mr. Epstein’s role in them, is unclear.”
That pretty much says it all.
Every transaction over $10,000 gets flagged, right??
Interesting that they put Dershowitz in the article....we know he was Epstein's attorney.
Should this be public information??
SARs aren’t supposed to be released.
So Dershowitz knows what this was about...interesting.
While the amount can be a factor in generating a SAR if it is in cash, it isn't the only factor. Smaller cash amounts can be reportable in some cases; other factors trigger reports of non-cash transfers. I may have some time after work to dig out the rules.
Lawyer getting paid from the estate for services.
The story isn’t clear. Did these transfers happen AFTER his death?
Trying to tie President Trump with all this. Sounds like gossip, not news.
“Mr. Epstein at times was close with President Trump and former President Bill Clinton”
The press keeps throwing this up. Trump barred him from his properties, Slick Willie kept going and dipping his willy.
This actually points EVEN MORE to a cover up at the highest levels.
Federal regulations require that a SAR is filed within 60 days of the event. This article says that the SARs were filed “...weeks after Jeffery Epstein died...”.
He had been incarcerated for 35 days before he died.
Unless he made all of the suspicious transactions in the days immediately before his arrest, JPMC was sitting on the transactions and NOT reporting them until they got the “all clear”.
CTRs (currency transaction report) and SARs (suspicious activity report) are not the same things.
CTRs need to be filed on all cash transactions over $10K
SARs need to be filed any time that there is suspicion of fraud.
If any of us got $10,000,000 in a transaction the IRS and the FBI would be asking a lot of questions.
BIDEN SARS SEEM TO NEVER HAVE EXISTED
Epstein’s scandalous personal life has overshadowed his role in moving money around the world for possibly nefarious purposes, possibly national security purposes, probably both. There is probably a big overlap between the two.
This would explain why he was protected. It would also explain his otherwise inexplicable wealth. Some of it may not be his, he was acting as a straw man and a place to park money for the kinds of operations that don’t make the newspapers.
I didn’t think Dershowitz was a consigliere!
Yes, with the qualification that structuring to avoid a CTR will trigger a SAR. A $12K currency transaction would trigger a CTR, two $6K currency transactions could trigger a SAR. Money transfers using multiple people might also trigger a SAR in some cases, even if the amounts are under a $3K reporting limit for those. Generally there is a $2K floor for filing a SAR.
People also forget that Epstein received a four year math scholarship to Cooper Union (NYC) at age 16.
He was a bad person, but anyone who thinks he was stupid, or a cat's-paw, is really missing the reality.
Virginia Giuffre, a recent suicide, at one time claimed she had sex with Alan Dershowitz.
Dershowitz counter sued for defamation.
Giuffre claimed mistaken identity and dropped her case.
Wonder how she spent her half mil.
