Barclays Ex-CEO Admits Sex with Epstein Staff Member
Jes Staley, former Barclays CEO, admitted to having sex with a member of Jeffrey Epstein’s staff in an apartment owned by Epstein’s brother. This admission, made during a tribunal challenging his ban from UK financial roles, contradicts his previous claims of a non-personal relationship with Epstein. Staley maintains the encounter was consensual and unbeknownst to Epstein, but the FCA presented emails suggesting a closer relationship, including references to Disney princesses and Epstein’s assertions that Staley was “like family.” The tribunal also explored Epstein’s alleged assistance with Staley’s daughter’s academic career, further questioning the nature of their connection.
