The recent report unearthed by the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York is a disconcerting account of late financier Jeffrey Epstein’s activities and associations.
This report casts light on the connections between the late financier Jeffrey Epstein and the Obama White House.
As expected, the findings have been deeply disturbing.
The document, sourced from the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, reveals details about Epstein’s activities and associations as well as links between him and Barack Obama’s White House counsel Katherine Ruemmler.
The report confirms that Jeffrey Epstein was involved in an extensive sex-trafficking operation which was openly acknowledged by JPMorgan during a class certification hearing held on May 26, 2023.
Following this revelation, JPMorgan released a press statement expressing profound regret over their association with Epstein and underscoring they would have severed all business ties had they been aware of his illicit activities.
Additionally, 2019 grand jury findings revealed that Epstein sexually exploited and abused dozens of minors at his homes in Manhattan and Palm Beach, Florida among other locations.
This crime earned him indictment while Ghislaine Maxwell – one of his close associates – was also arrested on multiple charges related to sexual exploitation of minors.
She was subsequently convicted on June 28, 2022.
Furthermore, numerous civil suits were filed against both Epstein and his co-conspirators seeking justice for victims.
This report also provides intricate details regarding JPMorgan’s involvement with Jeffrey Epstein.
This includes evidence suggesting that they processed several wire payments from him to various women as well as hints at potential negligence concerning due diligence prior to doing business with him – thus highlighting significance of ‘Know Your Client’ process (KYC).
Epstein’s personal assistant recommended Katherine Ruemmler – then-counsel for Obama – as a potential client to JPMorgan, who accepted despite cutting ties with him nearly six years earlier due to internal concerns raised about him over the years.
The filing reads: “In February 2019, Lesley Groff, Epstein’s assistant… offered to introduce Mary Erdoes to Kathy Ruemmler… because she wanted to open an account with JPMorgan and Epstein thought the two of them ‘would bond.’”
While there is no clear indication as such regarding the exact nature or extent of connection between the Obama administration and Jeffrey Epstein, it does raise several questions regarding possible impropriety within political circles during those times.
Consequently, JP Morgan agreed to a settlement sum of $290 million in response to a lawsuit initiated by alleged victims of Jeffrey Epstein.
This signaled one of most considerable financial penalties levied against any bank due to its association with the infamous financier’s appalling conduct.
While there is comprehensive overview provided about Jeffrey Epsteins’ dealings in this filing, the exact nature or depth behind linkages between him and the Obama administration remain unclear.
