JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon says he never heard about Jeffrey Epstein until he was arrested in 2019 and he was surprised by that
NEW YORK (AP) — JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon has testified that he never heard of Jeffrey Epstein and his crimes against teenage girls and young women until the financier was arrested in 2019, according to a transcript of the videotaped deposition released Wednesday.
Dimon said he first heard about it “when the story blew wide open. He was arrested, and all the stories came out about all the people he knows. And the reason I remember that is I was surprised that I didn’t know about it before.”
Asked by a lawyer if he'd ever heard the name Jeffrey Epstein before his arrest, Dimon responded, “Not that I recall.”
Dimon made the revelation during a videotaped deposition recorded last week in connection with lawsuits filed against the nation’s largest bank.
