One of Jeffrey Epstein’s many sexual abuse victims said the financier often had her followed and was so controlling that she felt she could not break free, according to a recently unsealed deposition in a now-settled class-action lawsuit against JPMorgan Chase.

Excerpts from testimony by the woman identified in the lawsuit as Jane Doe 1, who served as the lead plaintiff in the litigation filed on behalf of hundreds of sexual abuse victims, were unsealed on Wednesday after a motion by The New York Times to Judge Jed Rakoff of Federal District Court in Manhattan.

“I was leaving and another girl would be arriving,” Jane Doe 1 testified in March 2023. “Like it depended on his wants and needs on a weekly basis. I could be there every single day or go there twice in one day. We were coming and going and overlapping. There were girls there all the time.”

JPMorgan, the nation’s largest bank, agreed to settle the lawsuit last year and paid $290 million in compensation to nearly 200 women who had been sexually abused by Mr. Epstein, many of them teenagers at the time.

The lawsuit against JPMorgan, filed in 2022, accused the bank of ignoring repeated red flags about Mr. Epstein’s sex-trafficking operation for more than a decade because he had been a lucrative client. In settling the lawsuit, the bank said at the time that the settlement was “in the best interests of all parties.”

Mr. Epstein was arrested on federal sex-trafficking charges in July 2019. He died a month later of an apparent suicide while in federal custody in Manhattan.
