The U.S. Virgin Islands’ Memorandum in Support of Excluding Expert Testimony from JP Morgan was a direct strike at the bank’s legal strategy of hiding behind highly paid specialists to sanitize its conduct. The filing argued that JP Morgan’s proposed experts weren’t there to provide neutral, technical insight—they were being deployed to confuse the jury, shift blame, and whitewash the bank’s longstanding financial relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. The USVI pointed out that these experts attempted to dress up common sense issues—like due diligence, suspicious transactions, and regulatory compliance—as matters of complex banking science, when in reality the facts spoke plainly: the bank continued to profit off Epstein long after his 2008 conviction and obvious red flags. In essence, the memorandum framed JP Morgan’s “experts” as mouthpieces meant to cloud responsibility, not clarify it.
By moving to bar this testimony, the USVI was making a broader argument about accountability. If JP Morgan was allowed to weaponize expert witnesses to downplay its failures, the survivors’ pursuit of justice would be buried under jargon and pseudo-objectivity. The memorandum emphasized that letting these experts testify would not only mislead the jury but also distort the purpose of the trial, turning it into a battle of résumés rather than a reckoning with the bank’s choices. The USVI’s position was clear: the facts don’t need interpretation from consultants paid millions to protect a financial giant—they need to be weighed on their own merits. This was an attempt to strip away the camouflage JP Morgan hoped to use, forcing the court to confront the bank’s role in sustaining Epstein’s trafficking operation without distraction or distortion.
