"The woman, referred to in court papers on Wednesday as Jane Doe, is seeking an unspecified amount of damages from both banks.

A woman who says she was abused by Jeffrey Epstein sued Bank of America and the Bank of New York Mellon, alleging the banks knowingly provided financial services that enabled Epstein's sex‑trafficking operation for years. The plaintiff, identified in court papers as Jane Doe, seeks unspecified damages and is represented by Boies Schiller and Edwards Henderson, firms that previously secured $75 million and $290 million settlements with Deutsche Bank and JPMorgan. Bank of America declined to comment and BNY did not respond. Jane Doe says she met Epstein in 2011 in Russia, became financially dependent, was raped, forcibly touched, and forced into sex acts over many years. Epstein died by suicide in 2019 while awaiting trial. The House Oversight Committee is investigating and political controversy surrounds release of DOJ files.
