Google Billionaire Larry Page Subpoenaed in JPMorgan Lawsuit Over Epstein

Google co-founder Larry Page is being subpoenaed for records related to sex-trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, who allegedly courted Page as a client for JPMorgan Chase. Late last year, the U.S. Virgin Islands government and a victim of Epstein separately sued the multinational bank, claiming it participated in and profited off Epstein’s sex ring. Now, in the litigation’s latest salvo, the Caribbean territory is seeking documents from Page—including communications about “Epstein’s role” in his finances—from 2002 through present day. The subpoena also requests correspondence between Page and Epstein, and Page and JPMorgan; documents showing fees the Google billionaire paid to Epstein or JPMorgan; and records touching on “Epstein’s involvement in human trafficking and/or his procurement of girls or women for commercial sex.” In a legal filing on Thursday, the Virgin Islands asked a federal judge to authorize alternative service on Page after it was apparently unable to find him. The government’s motion said that since April 11, it “made good-faith attempts” to find his address, including by “hiring an investigative firm to search public records databases for possible addresses.” Last month, Page’s Google co-founder Sergey Brin was also subpoenaed in the case, along with billionaires Mortimer Zuckerman and Thomas Pritzker.
