America, the land of the free, a beacon of democracy, has always thrived on the principle of justice for all. A cradle of liberty, tarnished by an unholy blend of power, corruption, and silence, is currently a theatre of revelations, as horrid as they are baffling.
Deep-rooted corruption
The Barack Obama administration, prided for its Nobel Peace Prize, is in a shadow. In an era when Obama’s name evokes respect and admiration, an expose has thrust his administration into an inferno of accusations and doubts. JPMorgan Chase’s recent court filing claims that the U.S. Virgin Islands, home to Jeffrey Epstein’s vile empire, granted him over $300 million in tax benefits, cast aside sex offender monitoring requirements, and formed an unholy alliance with top officials.
Ironically, the largest U.S. bank is embroiled in a lawsuit for abetting Epstein’s heinous crimes. By providing banking services, JPMorgan facilitated the flow of Epstein’s dirty money to his victims with a chilling indifference to the human suffering it perpetuated. The U.S. Virgin Islands hit back, alleging that JPMorgan is the only entity in the lawsuit with real-time awareness of Epstein’s human trafficking operation. A startling allegation that unveils a scandalous reality that highlights profit trumps justice in the dark corridors of corporate power.
The U.S. Virgin Islands Police remained oblivious to Epstein’s trafficking activities. No complaints, no investigations. The silence is deafening. Meanwhile, JPMorgan agreed to cough up $290 million in settlement to Epstein’s victims, a stark reminder of the price of corporate complicity.

Top officials Involved
The bank’s filings reveal a chilling quid pro quo between Epstein and Virgin Island officials, notably Cecile de Jongh, the former first lady of the U.S. Virgin Islands. Her husband, John de Jongh, was the governor from 2007 to 2015. The bank alleges that Cecile managed Epstein’s local companies for eight years, securing visas for some victims in exchange for a generous salary, bonuses, and her children’s tuition fees—a horrifying glimpse into the heart of darkness.
In an appalling twist, Cecile certified Epstein as a “bona fide resident” in 2009, when he was serving a sentence following his 2008 guilty plea to a Florida prostitution charge. In another flagrant violation of law, the territory waived restrictions on Epstein’s ability to travel, despite his sex offender status. Epstein was often absent during home inspections by the territory’s officials.
The U.S. Virgin Islands bolstered these allegations by releasing a 22-page document prepared by JPMorgan in late 2019, disclosing Epstein’s close ties with Jes Staley, former JPMorgan private banking chief.

Oval office – mum
While the appalling conspiracy unfolded in the Virgin Islands, was the Oval Office in the dark? This question stirs the bowels of democratic America. Were the ears of the Obama administration filled with silence, or were they privy to this shocking debauchery?
Epstein was no ordinary citizen; his case had the nation’s attention. Yet, the administration, the guardian of justice and protector of the innocent, chose silence. Why? Were the high echelons of power enjoying the spoils of Epstein’s sordid empire?
The fabric of trust woven around the Obama administration is unraveling, shredded by the brutal truths in this episode. An administration known for its oratory is suddenly tongue-tied, caught in the glare of uncomfortable questions.
