LOCK EM ALL UP! BUSTED!

This has been the year like Katt Williams said that all TRUTH Shall be exposed and well folks looks like the Former Abercrombie & Fitch CEO Mike Jeffries and two others were arrested Tuesday 10/22/2024 as part of a criminal investigation into the alleged sex trafficking of more than a dozen victims, according to them FBI guys and federal prosecutors. Mike Jeffries + his partner, Matt Smith; and a third man, Jim Jacobson, are accused of operating an international sex trafficking and prostitution business that recruited young men for parties in the U.S. and abroad, according to an indictment of 16-counts! WOW I wonder if this is connected to Diddy snitching or someone on the Epstein list snitching?

OR Ghislaine Maxwell herself snitching? Anyway this goes on to say that the former retail executive and Smith relied on their vast financial resources, Jeffries' power as the CEO of Abercrombie, and numerous people, including Jacobson and a network of employees, contractors and security professionals, to run a business "that was dedicated to fulfilling their sexual desires like the dirty little birdies they are and ensuring that their international sex trafficking and prostitution business was kept secret," the indictment claims.

The federal prosecutors said the trio allegedly paid dozens of men to travel around the world to engage in sex acts over at least a seven-year period, starting in late 2008. I do wonder however if they have done this before with other sex cults or groups engaged in this stuff like Diddy and Epstein? Remember around 2008 is when Epstein was getting investigated. The indictment mentions 15 alleged victims, identified as John Does #1-#15. Jeffries allegedly recruited, hired and paid a slate of household staff to "facilitate and supervise the Sex Events." YUP Sounds like a Diddy or Epstein style "FREAKOFF" but the Prosecutors and them FBI folks believe there are many more victims! HAHA YOU Think?

And as you can imagine they have been asked them to come forward if they're victims or if they even hate the clothing... Allegedly Jacobson traveled throughout the USA and internationally to recruit and interview men for the "sex events", said prosecutors. During "tryouts" of potential candidates, Jacobson required that the candidates first engage in sex acts with him, prosecutors said. So a Casting couch? Seems very Hollywood don't it?

The indictment alleges that many of the men were coerced, led to believe that attending the events would yield modeling opportunities with Abercrombie or otherwise benefit their careers, or, in the alternative, that not complying with requests for certain acts during the sex events could harm their careers. The defendants are charged with sex trafficking and interstate prostitution. Jeffries was released on a $10 million bond following a brief initial appearance Tuesday afternoon before a federal magistrate in Florida, where he was arrested.

"Today marks a big step forward on behalf of David Bradberry and the other survivors in this action," said Dean Kaire, an attorney with Edwards Henderson who is representing several of the alleged victims, following the court appearance, according to WPBF.

Former crewman David Bradberry who was on the reality series "Below Deck," said Jeffries made Abercrombie successful by the "oversexualization of young men." His lawsuit accused Jeffries, Smith, Jacobson and Abercrombie itself of luring attractive young men under the guise of making them an Abercrombie model and then forcing them to take drugs and perform sex acts. Something we all could tell them without spending money in investigations! This much was clear from just their marketing from day one that this company was branding to young men and mostly those in the LGBTQ crowd...

"The arrest this morning serves as a validation of their bravery in coming forward and sharing their stories and experiences," Kaire said, "and our law firm looks forward to continue representing all survivors of abuse and ensuring that all parties are held responsible." Smith, a U.K. citizen, waived pretrial intervention and will be sent to New York from Florida and held pending arraignment. Jacobson was arrested in Minnesota and was released on a $500,000 bond after an arraignment in federal court in St. Paul.

Before his breakout role on That '70s Show, Ashton Kutcher modeled for Abercrombie & Fitch in 1998 after winning the "Fresh Faces of Iowa" competition.

Now, amid the growing Diddy scandal, Kutcher is reportedly planning to relocate to Europe to distance himself from the drama. pic.twitter.com/NZ9slVIawf

Jeffries and Jacobson will be arraigned Friday at the federal courthouse in Central Islip, Long Island. "We will respond in detail to the allegations after the Indictment is unsealed, and when appropriate, but plan to do so in the courthouse not the media," Brian Bieber, an attorney for Jeffries, and Joe Nascimento, an attorney for Smith, told ABC News in identical statements. Abercrombie & Fitch and an attorney for Jacobson declined ABC News' requests for comment Federal prosecutors had confirmed the investigation in January after alleged victims filed a civil lawsuit a year ago.

Jeffries, who was the chairman and CEO of the powerhouse teen fashion brand from 1992 to 2014, has been accused in civil lawsuits of exploiting young men for sex at parties he hosted at his Hamptons estate in New York, London, Venice and elsewhere with his partner, Smith. Brad Edwards of Edwards Henderson, which is representing several of the plaintiffs, told ABC News in a statement: "As we laid out in our lawsuit, this was an Abercrombie-run sex trafficking organization that permeated throughout the company and allowed the three individuals arrested today to victimize dozens and dozens of young, aspiring male models."

"Powerful individuals have for too long trafficked and abused for their own sexual pleasure young people with few resources and a dream a dream of making a successful career in fashion or entertainment," U.S. Attorney Breon Peace said Tuesday. I personally say if they're guilty LOCK THEM UP! Hell it's time to stop pretending these people are doing these illegal sex trafficking of under age kids. Time to end this now... LOCK EM ALL UP!

Epstein Connected JPMorgan With Trump’s Casino Guy and Ex-Clinton Lawyer

The latest revelation comes from an unredacted legal filing in the U.S. Virgin Islands’ lawsuit against JPMorgan.

(SOURCE) JPMorgan was accepting client referrals from Jeffrey Epstein years after he left the bank and just months before his 2019 arrest for child sex-trafficking, court documents reveal.

Kathy Ruemmler, who served under Presidents Clinton and Obama before joining white-collar defense firms, was one such referral. As The Daily Beast reported, Ruemmler showed up to Epstein’s New York arraignment and her name was found multiple times in Epstein’s 2014 schedule for meetings with Ehud Barak, Peter Thiel, and Bill Gates.

In February 2019, Epstein’s longtime assistant Lesley Groff emailed Mary Erdoes, the CEO of the bank’s Asset & Wealth Management arm, about Ruemmler.

“Jeffrey wanted me to reach out to you re his very good friend and former White House counsel to Pres. Barak [sic] Obama, Kathy Ruemmler,” wrote Groff, who was named as a potential co-conspirator in Epstein’s 2008 plea deal in Florida. (She denies any wrongdoing.)

“She would like to open an account with JPM,” Groff added. “Jeffrey requests she deal with you personally. Might this be possible?”

The latest revelation about Ruemmler and other Epstein associates comes from an unredacted legal filing in the U.S. Virgin Islands’ lawsuit against JPMorgan. The territory has accused the bank of enabling and profiting off Epstein’s trafficking ring and is seeking at least $190 million in damages in a case that’s headed to trial this fall.

Days later, Erdoes thanked Groff and wrote, “I dont handle accounts myself but we will definitley [sic] get her in the right hands.” Groff replied, “…Mary, Jeffrey just thought that kathy is one of the most powerful women in washington and thought you two would bond..”

Erdoes also emailed JPMorgan’s general counsel Stacey Friedman asking, “Do you know Kathy? Any reason we shouldnt take her? Odd that this is coming through JE…” Friedman answered, “We’re using her on some key matters. I would think she would be a great client.”

The court records show that years earlier, Epstein referred another high-profile client: Nick Ribis, the former head of Donald Trump’s hotel and casino empire. One January 2007 email from a JPMorgan employee included an attached memo that read, “Also, as you know, earlier today, Jeff called me to say he has asked two potential new clients in 200M range (Nick Ribis and Ben Jacobson) to call me directly.”

That month, a JPMorgan wealth adviser fired off an email to colleagues saying he “just got call from one of Jeffs referrals, Nick Ribis,” who was an executive at Colony Capital “specializing in ownership of casinos.” Ribis, the staffer said, asked for a meeting the following week at his Manhattan office albeit without Epstein. “He also thought unnecessary to invite Jeffrey, but I will call Jeff and let him know Nick called me and he and I set up lunch,” the adviser wrote.

Epstein and Ribis were still rubbing elbows years later. Emails obtained by The Daily Beast show that Groff asked Epstein about scheduling meetings with Ribis in April 2011, on the same day he had meetings with Bill Gates, Larry Summers and JPMorgan executive Jes Staley.

Ribis wasn’t the only potential client in the JPMorgan memo. Under a heavily-redacted section that refers to “clients/prospects,” the document listed public relations expert and onetime Epstein mouthpiece Howard Rubenstein. (According to the USVI’s statement of material facts, JPMorgan wired Rubenstein a total of $200,000 from Epstein’s accounts from October 2007 to June 2008, when Rubenstein acted as the sex-trafficker’s spokesman while he fended off serious charges in Palm Beach.)

Meanwhile, in 2006, Erdoes emailed fellow executives about moving Google’s business with the bank from San Francisco to New York because of Epstein. JPMorgan, legal filings allege, considered Epstein an adviser to Google co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin.

“Again, I want to reiterate that this is NOTHING to do with the abilities of the SF team,” Erdoes wrote in an October 2006 email. “This is solely because of our need to have a NY team to cover a NY person, Jeffrey Epstein (as the advisor to the partners).” On the same day, employees emailed about “Google founder GRATS,” or grantor retained annuity trusts that transfer wealth to heirs without gift or estate taxes. One executive wrote that she was setting up a conference call to “get the necessary background on the potential investment mgt opportunity associated with Jeffrey Epstein (advisor) to the trusts set up on behalf of the Google founder’s kids.”

While the email doesn’t name the Google co-founder, the USVI’s legal filings indicate Brin and executives from his family office, Bayshore Global, met with Erdoes and other JPMorgan bigwigs. And internal documents from JPMorgan stated that in 2014, Brin’s relationship was “one of the largest in the Private Bank” and worth $4 billion.

The unredacted documents also share more information about Epstein’s work with billionaire Leon Black, who is currently fighting a vicious legal battle with a law firm that’s represented three of his sexual abuse accusers.

According to a USVI pleading, “Epstein occasionally brought opportunities to JPMorgan for them to ‘deepen’ their relationship with Leon Black.” One of those chances arrived in July 2012, when Epstein requested a loan on Black’s behalf for an art purchase.

John Duffy, the CEO of the Private Bank, emailed another JPMorgan director the following October, asking, “Did we ever engage with Leon on a loan for his art purchase?”

“Not on our end,” the employee responded, adding, “I have a suspicion that the Epstein episode was not helpful to our relationship and connectivity with Leon.” Still, in May 2013, Epstein emailed JPMorgan employees requesting a meeting at Black's office that June. One senior employee wrote to colleagues, “Jeffrey just called to discuss meeting. There is a $1B credit facility with JPM in the mix…”

The manager of Leon Black’s family office, Eileen Alexanderson, emailed Justin Nelson, Epstein’s banker at JPMorgan, in August 2013: “At your convenience, I would be interested in discussing potential terms for a collateralized personal borrowing by Mr Black.”

Two months later, a JPMorgan director contacted Nelson about Epstein’s role as Black’s financial adviser. “Are we still doing any business with him or his clients &/or is there any way for us to insert ourselves or get Jeffrey to insert us into transactions with people he apparently influences like Leon?” the director wrote.

In February 2014, Duffy wrote an underling that Black’s family office manager wanted to open Black’s accounts through Nelson. The employee responded, “We all remain very concerned about the Epstein link.”

“Totally get it – I’m sure this was hard for the team,” Duffy wrote.

In 2012, a JPMorgan employee contacted Duffy about approvals for “high risk” private bank clients, among them Epstein. “Can we please review the cash withdrawal activity for his entities?” Duffy replied in an email.

When a compliance official found cash withdrawals worth $30,000 or $40,000 each in an account associated with Epstein’s private jet, Duffy replied, “JE and I spoke about his pattern of cash withdrawals. His answer was ‘fuel payments in foreign countries.’”

"Sounds like I still need to speak with him, however I did ask him to withdraw this cash from his aviation account for these payments,” Duffy continued. “Clearly he is doing this."

But USVI, in its statement of material facts, says, “There is no evidence that the Bank asked Epstein for any receipts or other documentation to support his cash-for-fuel explanation. They took Epstein ‘at his word.’”

The unredacted legal filing highlights other red flags related to Epstein, including the bank learning in 2011 that Bear Stearns faced a subpoena over the wealthy sex offender.

JPMorgan acquired Bear Stearns in 2007, and as a result, one of Bear Stearns’ anti-money laundering compliance officials held a similar role at the bank. That official was “responsible for responding to a 2007 subpoena by the federal prosecutors investigating Epstein for federal sex crimes,” the document states.

“Seems JPMC never was served a subpoena, which I find odd since we were his #1 bank and actually Bear got one in 07,” one employee noted in a January 2011 email. JPMorgan employees then tracked down the U.S. Attorney’s Office subpoena to Bear Stearns which requested, among other things, a “list of accounts at other financial institutions that Bear Stearns has either transferred money to or receive money from on behalf of Mr. Epstein.” (In response to this subpoena, Bear Stearns indicated in a regulatory report that it didn’t find any suspicious wire transfers.)

The legal filing also notes that Epstein sued Bear Stearns in 2009 for “fraudulently overstat[ing] the value” of its mortgages and securities, as well as other alleged misconduct.

In 2011, after JPMorgan offered to settle Epstein's claims for $21 million, the bank’s general counsel Stephen Cutler sent an email to employees including Erdoes and Staley, “This is not an honorable person in any way. He should not be a client.” Cutler also wrote to Erdoes, “I would like to put it and HIM behind us. Not a person we should do business with – period.”

It would be two more years, however, before JPMorgan cut ties with Epstein. “I appreciate the effort,” the perverted financier wrote to Erdoes after the settlement. “Let’s move on, [sic] and make some real money.” 

“Onwards and upwards, on so many fronts,” Erdoes replied. Since the USVI and a victim known as Jane Doe sued JPMorgan over its decade-long relationship with Epstein in late 2022, CEO Jamie Dimon claimed that he never knew Epstein was a client of the bank until his death in a Manhattan jail. But the unredacted filings reveal that Dimon and Epstein served on the same internal working group related to Highbridge Capital Management, the investment fund of Epstein’s close friend Glenn Dubin. JPMorgan acquired Highbridge in 2004, and the fund paid an Epstein company $15 million for “merger and acquisition advice.”

After the deal closed, Staley asked his assistant to send an email to Dimon and Dubin with Epstein blind-copied on the message. “You’ve done an amazing job of bringing our businesses together and delivering numbers (both financial returns and investment returns) that will earn the envy of our industry,” the draft read.

“We are well on our way to resume our position as one of the most repected [sic] asset and wealth managers.”

Jerry Harris, Star Of Netflix Series 🍿🏃🎥‘Cheer,’ Charged With Child Porn!

A so called star of the Netflix series “Cheer,” named “Jerry Harris” was charged in federal court here with producing child pornography, CBS 2 has confirmed. I don’t got NetFlix, and don’t know this show. But this Harris guy who’s 21, was arrested on Thursday and made an initial court appearance this afternoon before a federal magistrate.

The show “Cheer” is a docuseries that details competitive cheerleading, and it is in that atmosphere that Harris is accused of forming these relationships with younger male cheerleaders and then exploiting them for child porn pictures and videos and in some cases, sex.

“The Naperville” resident Jeremiah Harris is accused specifically of luring two boys to send him sexual pictures. But late Thursday afternoon, it was learned he admitted to doing the same thing to as many as 15 other children and the allegations don’t end there.

Prosecutors in U.S. District Court unraveled a disturbing pattern that went on for over a year according to federal prosecutors, Harris contacted twin underage boys on social media apps, and repeatedly enticed them to produce sexually explicit videos and photographs of themselves and send them to Harris. One of the boys agreed to send Harris naked pictures and videos of himself, but the other declined.

The boy who did send the images informed Harris during their initial online encounter that he was 13 years old, the federal complaint states. The complaint charges Harris with one count of producing child pornography. Federal agents were tipped off by the mother of the victims, who found pornographic images and text messages with Harris on one of their phones. The boy told the mom, identified in the complaint as Individual A, that Harris had asked for the photos. The boy said he had sent more than a dozen photos of his genitals to Harris, and Harris had sent similar images of himself to the boy, the complaint alleges.

Court documents showed a text exchange where prosecutors said Harris messaged the boy and asked for photos, including “booty” pics. Prosecutors also showed a young boy doing a cheerleading position know as “the needle.” They said a Snapchat account using Harris’ name asked the child to do it naked and take a video to show him.

Harris admitted to investigators that he was asking for the photos via Snapchat between December 2018 and March 2020, the complaint states. The minor is a competitive cheerleader who also met Harris at a cheer event, where Harris asked for oral sex, according the the complaint. The boy refused.

The charges also accuse Harris of sending text messages to both boys, soliciting them for sex, but the boys declined. Harris also admitted to soliciting and receiving child pornography on Snapchat from at least between 10 to 15 other individuals he knew were minors. Investigators said in some cases, Harris paid his victims – up to $3,000 in one case. The complaint cites other incidents earlier this year in which Harris repeatedly asked for, and obtained, videos and images from a 17-year-old boy in exchange for money.

Harris is considered a breakout star a fan favorite on the Netflix show “Cheer.” He has more than 1 million Instagram followers. But the FBI confirmed to CBS 2 it conducted a court-authorized law enforcement action at the house in Naperville where neighbors said Harris now lives. No one answered the door at the house, but neighbors said they noticed more than six vehicles where Harris’ red Jeep sat parked. USAToday reported earlier this week that the 21-year-old was being investigated for allegedly soliciting sex and explicit videos from minors.

Harris’ attorney did not stop to talk to the news media in court Thursday. Attorneys representing the twin boys said a parent had the courage to report Harris’ alleged conduct, and urged investigators to look into whether people overseeing cheer camps or other events could have stopped this and perhaps failed to do so. When asked about Harris, a representative of Varsity Sports, one of Harris’ former employers, said they “continue to cooperate with authorities in their inquiries on this matter,” but could not comment further.

Netflix released a statement reading: “Like everyone we are shocked by this news. Any abuse of minors is a terrible crime and we respect the legal process.” Harris is a Bolingbrook native who attended Waubonsie Valley High School. Production of child pornography is punishable by a minimum sentence of 15 years in prison and a maximum of 30 years. This isn’t the first time Netflix has had issues with them having something to do with Child Porn. Cuties is still a hot topic people are mad over, and Netflix also paid Millions to the Obamas for nothing but to endorse them and make them richer but Obama has been now also tied to Jefferey Epstein’s Island, and Plane… Also all his other crooked activity. Netflix really needs to screen their hiring process better.
