Investigate Deutsche Bank-Epstein-Kushner Network and Prosecute Involved Parties

I am writing to urge you to demand a comprehensive federal investigation into the interconnected network involving Jeffrey Epstein, Jared Kushner, Deutsche Bank, and associated individuals including Bill Barr, Mary Daly, Leon Black, and Thomas Bowers. House Oversight Committee documents reveal that on September 16, 2019, prosecutors at the Southern District of New York discussed merging Epstein's case with an existing Deutsche Bank and Kushner investigation. This was not coincidental. FBI interviews with Deutsche Bank compliance officer Tammy McFadden on July 12, 2019, established that the same relationship manager handled both Epstein and Kushner accounts. McFadden flagged suspicious activity in both accounts, including cryptocurrency transactions from a Kushner entity called Real Contrad LLC and payments to an employee whose online presence appeared fabricated. She called the overlap between accounts "mind boggling." McFadden was terminated in 2018 after recommending the accounts be closed. The timing and positioning of key figures demands scrutiny. In February 2019, five months before Epstein's arrest, Mary Daly, daughter of Attorney General Bill Barr, left the deputy attorney general's office to join FinCEN, the agency that receives Suspicious Activity Reports from banks. Her father oversaw the Epstein case while being the son of Donald Barr, who allegedly gave Epstein his first teaching job at Dalton School in 1974 despite having no credentials. McFadden also discovered 102 politically exposed persons hidden in "deferred" status in Deutsche Bank's system in December 2015. All 102 had been placed there by the same person. She was never allowed to complete her review to determine if Trump or Kushner were among them. Thomas Bowers, who headed Deutsche Bank's private wealth division, set up Epstein's accounts, and oversaw the relationship manager handling both Epstein and Kushner accounts, was found hanged in his Malibu home in November 2019 while the FBI was actively seeking to interview him about Epstein's banking activities. Leon Black paid Epstein approximately $158 million for "advisory services." Apollo Global Management, which Black founded, later provided financing for the Brookfield deal that bailed out Kushner's 666 Fifth Avenue with a $1.28 billion lease. An FBI confidential human source report from October 2020 stated that Epstein belonged to intelligence services and that "Kushner has moved a lot of Russian investment money around," recommending investigation of Kushner family charities for corruption and money laundering. JPMorgan filed a massive SAR in September 2019 flagging approximately 4,700 transactions totaling over $1 billion. JPMorgan spokesperson Patricia Wexler later stated that "it does not appear that anyone in the government or law enforcement acted on those SARs for years." New York's Department of Financial Services fined Deutsche Bank $150 million in July 2020, but this treated Epstein as an isolated problem rather than addressing the network prosecutors identified. Six months after leaving the White House, Kushner collected $2 billion from MBS after the Saudi fund's own advisors objected. Senator Wyden wrote that Affinity's investors may be motivated by "the opportunity to funnel foreign government money to members of President Trump's family." I urge you to call for a full investigation into this network, demand answers about the 102 hidden names, determine what happened to the merged investigation prosecutors were building, and pursue prosecution of all individuals involved in potential money laundering, obstruction of justice, and corruption. The suppression of suspicious activity reports, the strategic positioning of officials, and the death of a key witness suggest systematic obstruction that must be addressed.
