(Joshua Paladino, Headline USA) In an email exchange between Jeffrey Epstein and then-JP Morgan CEO Jes Staley, they used Disney code words to discuss child sex trafficking.
A year after Epstein finished his 13-month sentence for prostituting a child, Staley sent him an email that seemed to describe a recent sexual encounter and to plan an upcoming one, the Western Journal reported.

These Disney terms do not seem to have a generally accepted meaning, so they could be the perverted creations of Epstein and his clients. But Twitter users have noted that Snow White is 14 years old in the movie and Belle is 17 years old.
Between 2008 and 2012, Epstein and Staley sent 1,200 emails to each other. This period corresponded to Staley’s tenure as JP Morgan’s chief executive officer. He left the company in 2013.
The email conversation came up because the Virgin Islands filed a lawsuit against JP Morgan Chase for alleged “complicity” in Epstein’s sex trafficking and prostitution operations.
JP Morgan called the case “meritless,” adding that the Virgin Islands want to pull from “deeper pockets” than Epstein’s estate allowed.
Documents from the lawsuit also revealed that Epstein sent Staley a picture of a girl, but the court redacted the image.
The Virgin Islands claim that JP Morgan facilitated Epstein’s criminal sexual activities.
The lawsuit alleges that “at least 20 individuals paid through JP Morgan accounts were victims of trafficking and sexual assault in Little St. James, New York, and/or other Epstein properties.”
