The New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) released a statement Tuesday morning, seen by CNBC, indicating Deutsche Bank has been fined $150 million for banking transactions with accused child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, who is now dead.
NYDFS said Deutsche Bank agreed to the multi-million dollar penalty for “failing to properly monitor account activity conducted on behalf of the registered sex offender despite ample information that was publicly available concerning the circumstances surrounding Mr. Epstein’s earlier criminal misconduct.”
Banking regulators have been investigating Epstein’s dealings with the bank for months, including past lending and transactions, along with dozens of accounts linked to him shortly before he died last August.
The investigation of Deutsche Bank focused on why the bank continued to do business with Epstein despite internal concerns that were raised, a separate report via The New York Times recently said.
“Despite knowing Mr. Epstein’s terrible criminal history, the bank inexcusably failed to detect or prevent millions of dollars of suspicious transactions,” Linda A. Lacewell, NYDFS’ superintendent, said in a statement.
NYDFS said payments from Epstein’s Deutsche Bank account(s) were made to his co-conspirators who sexually abused women. Other payments were made “to Russian models, payments for women’s school tuition, hotel and rent expenses, and (consistent with public allegations of prior wrongdoing) payments directly to numerous women with Eastern European surnames,” the department added.

What a joke they laundered billions and killed only god knows how many thousands. The streets should run red in their blood. A fine they will pay by hiking up the rates of the bank? Who paid the fine? The same idiots that pay for everything else. Bleat for me like the sheep you all are.
