Bank of America Pays $72.5M to Epstein Victims Amid Justice Concerns
Bank of America has agreed to a $72.5 million settlement in a class action lawsuit alleging it facilitated Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operation. This agreement, which does not admit wrongdoing by the bank, is the fourth such settlement with a major financial institution by Epstein victims. The funds will compensate women sexually abused or trafficked by Epstein or his associates between June 30, 2008, and July 6, 2019, with lawyers identifying at least 60 potential plaintiffs within that period. The resolution aims to provide closure for the victims and allow Bank of America to move past the matter.
