The Democratic chairman designate of the Senate Finance Committee sent a signal that after the Democratic Party takes over the committee next year, three large banks linked to the notorious financier Jeffrey Epstein will be the primary investigation targets of the committee. Senator Ron Wyden told reporters at the Capitol on Monday: “We have three Wall Street banks. If they had done nothing but abide by the law all these years, we could have stopped Epstein's crimes once and for all.” Although Wyden did not name these three banks in his statement on Monday, a report he released earlier indicated that Bank of America, J.P. Morgan Chase, and Deutsche Bank facilitated Epstein's illegal activities. Epstein died in a New York prison cell after being arrested on sex trafficking charges in 2019.
