JPMorgan and Deutsche Bank seek dismissal of lawsuits by Epstein accusers
Women say banks enabled and ignored red flags about the financier’s sex trafficking
JPMorgan Chase and Deutsche Bank have asked a US judge to dismiss lawsuits by women who accused Jeffrey Epstein of sexual abuse and said the banks enabled and ignored red flags about the late financier’s sex trafficking.
The banks, in papers filed on Friday night in Manhattan federal court in New York, said they did not participate in or benefit from sex trafficking by their former client, and that the unnamed women failed to allege violations of a federal anti-trafficking law.
