| For

Sued Is Fired

SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Jan 2 –
J.P. Morgan
Chase and
Deutsche Bank
were sued for
their enabling
of Jeffrey
Epstein, in
lawsuits filed
on
Thanksgiving
in the U.S.
District Court
for the
Southern
District of
New York,
where Inner
City Press
found them in
the docket.
The separate
lawsuits
allege that
"without
exorbitantly
large amounts
of cash,
Epstein's
operations
could not run,
as newly
recruited
victims were
each paid
hundreds of
dollars in
cash
immediately
after Epstein
sexually
abused them,
as hush
money."
The
JPM Chase
complaint is
on Patreon, here.
Later
in December
2022, US
Virgin Islands
filed suit
against
JPMorgan
Chase, stating
that "JP
Morgan
knowingly
facilitated,
sustained and
concealed the
human
trafficking
network
operated by
Jeffrey
Epstein from
his home and
base in the
Virgin Islands
and financial
benefited from
this
participating
by failing to
comply with
federal
banking
regulations."
Judge Rakoff
ordered:
"ORDER:
Barring any
objection from
plaintiff
Government of
the United
States Virgin
Islands, which
must be made
by joint
telephone call
to Chambers no
later than
5:00 PM on
January 4,
2023, this
case is hereby
consolidated
for all
pretrial
purposes with
Doe v.
Deutsche Bank,
22- cv-10018
and Doe v. JP
Morgan Chase
& Co.,
22-cv-10019."
Then the
USVI Attorney
General who
sued Chase was
fired: “I
relieved
Denise George
of her duties
as attorney
general this
weekend,” Gov.
Albert Bryan
Jr. said. “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.
Assistant
Attorney
General Carol
Thomas-Jacobs
will serve as
acting
attorney
general.”
Will an
explanation or
notice be
filed in the
SDNY case? And
what will
Judge Rakoff
have to say?
On November
29, the Doe
v. bank(s)
cases were
assigned to SDNY
Judge Jed S.
Rakoff, as
"related" to a
previous case
against Deutsche
Bank he has.
Both had
a proceeding
on December 5
that Inner City
Press covered.
In the
courtroom along
with David
Boies, Bradley
Edwards,
Sigrid
McCawley et al
was former
SDNY
prosecutor Robert
Boone (Inner
City Press
covered him in
the Michael
Avenatti -
Stormy Daniels
criminal
case), now representing
JPMorgan
Chase.
Both
cases have the
same pre-trial schedule,
going
forwar. But for now they
have different
trial dates: "
barring
further order
of the Court,
trial of the
cases will
proceed
separately,
with
22-cv-10018-UA
starting trial
on August 7,
2023 and
22-cv-10019-UA
starting trial
on September
5, 2023. SO
ORDERED.
(Signed by
Judge Jed S.
Rakoff on
12/5/22) Filed
In Associated
Cases:
1:22-cv-10018-JSR,
1:22-cv-10019-JSR."

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

Press); Norway
won't answer

AMbasador Mona
Juul and
Terje Roed Larsen
taking $130,000
personal loan
from Epstein.
