JPMorgan sued former executive Jes Staley over his ties to Jeffrey Epstein, identifying Staley as the “powerful financial executive” accused of sexual assault in a lawsuit against the bank.

Late last year, an unnamed woman alleged that JPMorgan aided Epstein’s sex trafficking by allowing him to remain a client and helping him send money to the late financier’s victims.
