Epstein-linked judge's, Gunman attacks family of US federal judge Esther Salas

New Jersey Federal Judge Esther Salas, whose son and husband were shot on July 19 in their home, was recently assigned to a case linked to the late financier Jeffrey Epstein.

Bloomberg reported on July 16 that Deutsche Bank AG is accused of misleading investors “about anti-money-laundering deficiencies” as well as failing to “properly monitor” customers that are “high-risk,” including Epstein.

In August 2019, Epstein died by “apparent suicide” in his Manhattan Metropolitan Correctional Center cell, according to Business Insider. The New York-based financier was arrested earlier that year on “suspicion of sex trafficking underage girls in the early 2000s,” the outlet continued.

The Deutsche Bank civil case was filed on July 15 and assigned to Salas the following day, Global News Wire added.

Global News Wire indicated that the lawsuit was filed on behalf anyone who purchased the bank’s securities between November 7, 2017 and July 6, 2020.

The suit claims the bank was dishonest with investors about failing to fix ongoing problems surrounding its “disclosure controls,” among other things, the Wire continued. It also accuses the company of inadequately monitoring “high risk” clients, citing Epstein and two other “correspondent banks” involved in prior financial scandals.
