JPMorgan accuses US Virgin Islands of complicity in Epstein crimes.

JP Morgan has claimed that the government of the US Virgin Islands is "complicit in the crimes of Jeffrey Epstein" in a legal filing, alleging that Epstein maintained a "quid pro quo relationship" with some of the territory's highest officials over two decades. The US Virgin Islands has sought legal depositions of the bank's CEO and other high-profile names as part of an effort to gather more information about Epstein's relationship with JP Morgan. JP Morgan denies the claims and countersues, alleging that the US Virgin Islands government is the entity "that most directly failed to protect public safety and most actively facilitated and benefited from Epstein's continued criminal activity".
