Sen. Ron Wyden report says major banks failed to flag Epstein transactions

newsAug 4, 20262912,173

Senator Ron Wyden released a 67-page report saying Deutsche Bank, JPMorgan Chase, and Bank of America logged but did not timely report large suspicious transactions tied to Jeffrey Epstein. Wyden’s report says Deutsche Bank failed to promptly notify authorities of more than $250 million in questionable transfers, including cash used to pay women in Russia and Eastern Europe, and retroactively informed U.S. officials after Epstein’s July 2019 arrest. The report says Bank of America recorded about $170 million in Epstein-related transactions tied to Leon Black and later concluded those transfers had no apparent economic or lawful purpose. The report also says JPMorgan processed more than $1 billion for Epstein despite internal concerns at the bank. Former 60 Minutes correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi had interviewed Wyden in March for a planned segment on Epstein’s banking ties that did not air after Alfonsi was fired in May; CBS News told Bloomberg the story had not been finished and denied any suppression.

A 60 Minutes probe into Epstein's banking, with Wyden already interviewed, vanished right after Sharyn Alfonsi got pushed out under Bari Weiss. Same editor who stalled the CECOT migrant story until Stephen Miller got a say. CBS keeps calling it timing. Sure looks like a pattern.

How convenient that banks see crimes and then wait YEARS to raise the alarm. "B of A reported $170M in Epstein-related transactions connected to billionaire Leon Black, including some that the bank said had “no apparent economic, business or lawful purpose,” 5 to 7 years after they took place"

Jason kindly provides all the key findings of his Bloomberg article. He got Sen Ron Wyden's report on how major banks failed to file SARs on Epstein and Leon Black; Black denied wrongdoing. Read the thread please.

We already know the #FBI has the evidence because it was handed over to them directly. so tell us how they are not being prosecuted with this evidence Todd Blanche?

It's always Deutsche Bank, isn't it. 2008, Epstein, Trump - they have never seen a shady deal that they wouldn't finance.

Deutsche Bank seems to always be on the wrong side of things
