J.P. Morgan
Chase and
Deutsche Bank
were sued for
their enabling
of Jeffrey
Epstein, in
lawsuits filed
on
Thanksgiving
2022 in the
U.S. District
Court for the
Southern
District of
New York,
where Inner
City Press
found them in
the docket.
The
JPM Chase
complaint is
on Patreon, here. Maximum
Maxwell book here.
On October 15,
2025, amid a push in
Congress to
fully release
the so-called
Epstein files,
a lawsuit
was
filed in SDNY
against Bank
of America,
1:25-cv-8520
(Rakoff) Jones Day
stepped in for
Bank of
America on its
Epstein issues
- which have
been raised to
the Office
of the
Comptroller of
the Currency
by Fair
Finance Watch.
On January 29
Judge Jed S.
Rakoff while
dismissing
some counts against
BofA allowed
to go forward
count 1 ("Knowing
Beneficiary in
a
Sex-Trafficking
Venture in
Violation of
18 USC
1591(a)(2),
1595") and
count 4 ("Obstruction
of the
Enforcement of
the TVPA, 18
USC 1591(d)" -
and still the
OCC (and UN)
do nothing. On
February 11
Judge Rakoff
docketed his
order,
including
citing Morris
as BofA as in
the know -
full order on
Patreon here On
March 11 a
telephone
conference
was held on
deposition

the UN has yet to
answer Inner
City Press on
why SG Antonio
Guterres maintained a
rep on the
board of
Ghislaine
Maxwell's
Terramar
Project (instead
bannign the
Press); Norway
won't answer
