US Virgin Islands subpoenas Elon Musk for documents in JPMorgan Chase lawsuit over Epstein case.

Elon Musk Slams Subpoena from U.S. Virgin Islands

Twitter owner Elon Musk has hit back at a subpoena from the U.S. Virgin Islands, which is demanding that he turn over alleged documents that the government apparently wants to use in its lawsuit accusing JPMorgan Chase of financially benefiting from Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operation.

The Subpoena

The subpoena requested communications between Musk and JPMorgan regarding Epstein and any information on whether Epstein played any role in any of Musk’s companies. It also requested any documents regarding fees paid to Epstein or JPMorgan, or any documents regarding Epstein’s sex trafficking ring. Musk is not being implicated in any wrongdoing, according to the outlet.

Musk’s Statement

The only reported contact that Musk ever had with Epstein happened in 2019, according to a statement from that year that Musk gave to Vanity Fair.

“I don’t recall introducing Epstein to anyone, as I don’t know the guy well enough to do so, Epstein is obviously a creep,” Musk said in-part. “Several years ago, I was at his house in Manhattan for about 30 minutes in the middle of the afternoon with [ex-wife] Talulah [Riley], as she was curious about meeting this strange person for a novel she was writing. We did not see anything inappropriate at all, apart from weird art. He tried repeatedly to get me to visit his island. I declined.”

The Filing

The Virgin Islands reportedly had difficulty finding Musk to deliver him the subpoena, according to a filing with the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.

“The Government contacted Mr. Musk’s counsel via email to ask if he would be authorized to accept service on Mr. Musk’s behalf in this matter but did not receive a response confirming or denying his authority,” the filing said.

Musk’s Response

Musk mocked the news on Twitter, writing: “This is idiotic on so many levels: 1. That cretin never advised me on anything whatsoever. 2. The notion that I would need or listen to financial advice from a dumb crook is absurd. 3. JPM let Tesla down ten years ago, despite having Tesla’s global commercial banking business, which we then withdrew. I have never forgiven them.”

Summary

In summary, Elon Musk has slammed the subpoena from the U.S. Virgin Islands, stating that he has no involvement in Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operation. He also mocked the news on Twitter, stating that he would never take financial advice from a “dumb crook”.

Reasons Why Musk Dismisses the Subpoena

• He has no involvement in Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operation.
• He has never taken financial advice from Epstein.
• JPMorgan Chase let Tesla down ten years ago, despite having Tesla’s global commercial banking business, which they then withdrew.

It is clear that Musk is not taking the subpoena seriously and is confident that he has no involvement in the case.
