In a recent ruling, a federal judge in the Southern District of New York dismissed most claims in a lawsuit filed by six anonymous women against the Government of the United States Virgin Islands (USVI) and several officials, alleging complicity in Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking operations. The court determined it lacked personal jurisdiction over defendants such as former Governors John de Jongh and Kenneth Mapp, former Attorney General Vincent Frazer, and former Senators Celestino White and Carlton Dowe, leading to the dismissal of claims against them. Additionally, claims against former First Lady Cecile de Jongh were barred due to a prior settlement agreement
However, the court allowed claims against Delegate to Congress Stacey Plaskett to proceed, citing sufficient ties to New York through alleged activities such as visiting Epstein's New York residence and soliciting campaign donations there. The court found plausible allegations under the Trafficking Victims Protection Act and negligence claims, asserting that Plaskett's alleged receipt of financial and political support from Epstein in exchange for favorable political actions warranted further proceedings.
