How Jes Staley Rallied The Troops At JP Morgan On Behalf Of Ghislaine Maxwell

Jes Staley, during his tenure at JPMorgan Chase, repeatedly went to bat for Ghislaine Maxwell in ways that raised serious ethical and legal questions—especially given her known proximity to Jeffrey Epstein and the mounting allegations surrounding their network. Despite internal concerns and red flags about her role in Epstein’s operation, Staley reportedly pushed to maintain the bank’s relationship with her, describing her in internal communications as a valuable connection. He didn’t just look the other way—he advocated for her behind the scenes, leveraging his position to keep her in JPMorgan’s good graces even as the media and law enforcement began circling. This wasn’t a neutral business decision—it was a choice to align the institution with someone credibly accused of aiding in the trafficking of minors.

What makes Staley’s defense of Maxwell particularly galling is the context: this wasn’t done in ignorance or innocence. By the time he was propping her up, Epstein had already been convicted, and Maxwell’s name was widely associated with disturbing accusations. Yet Staley maintained contact with both of them, including sending effusive messages and allegedly visiting Epstein’s properties. His support for Maxwell underscores the broader problem: a banking culture more concerned with preserving elite networks than confronting criminal behavior. In protecting her, Staley wasn’t just protecting a client—he was protecting a gateway to a world of influence, access, and secrets. And in doing so, he dragged JPMorgan into the moral quicksand that continues to stain its legacy.
