Epstein Island

[Mjl]

What's infuriating about this is we know a lot of powerful people did some awful things. Ghislaine Maxwell knows all the deets. Are we just... never going to find out?

This is one of those conspiracy theories that's infuriating due to the fact that there's a lot of there there.

[Sparko]

Good. Fuck JPMorgan and fuck Jaime Dimon.

Yup.

[RainbowsandUnicorns]

Good. Fuck JPMorgan and fuck Jaime Dimon.

Yup.

This question is for DC, Sparko, (and anyone/everyone else who would care to answer)....
Be honest, do you really give a flying fuck about what Dimon and J.P. Morgan had (and didn't have) to do with Epstein?
Now if you are saying fuck J.P. Morgan and Jaime Dimon for other reasons, I can and do believe your anger/hatred and do/would understand your sentiment.

[ousdahl]

Yea

Is this “fuck them” a fuck them specific to the Epstein shit, or in a more general Evil Rich People kinda way?

Epstein accuser Jane Doe 1 reaches $290 million settlement with JPMorgan Chase

https://www.npr.org/2023/06/12/11816755 ... rgan-chase

The lawsuit is one of several targeting banks who serviced Epstein's financial dealings for years, even after it emerged in 2006 that Epstein was using his wealth to exploit minors and young women. Last month, Deutsche Bank agreed to a $75 million settlement in a similar case.

That a company has so much money that they can just throw that amount of money down the pipe to be done with a case like this is mind boggling. From the limited amount I have seen on this, it is a huge stretch to say that the bank "facilitated" anything other than to be a bank where a scumbag kept his money. Every bank in America probably has a few everyday scumbags. Should we now make it a policy that US banks can just decide to jettison a customer because they think that are scummy people?

I hear you.
I have read the article but I am still struggling to come to terms that someone was "rewarded" 290 million dollars FROM J.P. MORGAN.
It makes me realize we live in a country where someone can become incredibly wealthy because someone did something to them - ok, that's not always so bad but what I find really bad is that it gives people an incentive to try and SCAM their way in to "settlements" - and it happens. Too often Scumbags get rewarded while the good guys get screwed.
Realize that's coming from someone (me) who used to process general liability insurance claims.

there’s a reason “nice guys finish last” is even a thing

The world is full of people looking to cash in on being the next "Liebeck v. McDonald's Restaurants" case and the laws are set up so that lawyers can milk those cases for endless streams of revenue.

[ousdahl]

Isn’t the $290 million just a SETTLEMENT, too?

Like the amount JP Morgan was willing to pay to AVOID actually going to trial

A new report by Department of Justice found that the prison employees at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan failed to monitor Jeffrey Epstein for four hours before his death and lied about their negligence in the lead up to his 2019 death.

Maybe this guy had dirt on the Clintons.... or maybe pervs who rape kids would rather commit suicide than face a lifetime of getting raped in prison?
