Raskin Seeks $1.5B in Epstein Bank Records From 4 Banks
House Judiciary Committee ranking member Jamie Raskin demands banks disclose records on $1.5 billion in suspicious Epstein transactions amid blocked subpoenas and ongoing probes.
- On Wednesday, House Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Jamie Raskin sent letters to JPMorgan Chase, Deutsche Bank, Bank of America, and Bank of New York Mellon seeking records tied to more than $1.5 billion in suspicious transactions and asked JPMorgan to provide all documents by Oct. 22.
- After Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee blocked Democratic subpoenas on September 17, Democrats turned to letters and voluntary requests to obtain Epstein-related bank records.
- Raskin detailed bank-specific lapses, noting JPMorgan Chase retroactively filed SARs for 4,700 transfers totaling $1.1 billion and Bank of America submitted only two delayed SARs covering $170 million.
- With subpoenas blocked, Democrats pressed for full document sets covering decades of transactions, seeking records spanning 1998 to the present including internal communications and risk assessments.
- Recent settlements, including JPMorgan's $290 million and Deutsche Bank's $75 million in 2023, add pressure as FBI Director Kash Patel said the agency `failed to 'follow the money'` on Epstein.
