Three Deutsche Bank 302s Are Public. Wyden Says a Banker Report Is Still Missing.

What Wyden actually says

On September 30, 2026, Senate Finance Committee Ranking Member Ron Wyden asked the Justice Department for all Epstein-related FBI FD-302 interview reports. His letter says committee investigators learned that the FBI possesses at least one unreleased 302 memorializing an interview with a banker closely tied to Epstein. The same request separately asks for 302s involving employees of JPMorgan Chase, Deutsche Bank and Bank of America.

Those are two different propositions. The letter says a banker report exists and was not in the public release. It does not identify that banker as a Deutsche employee, Paul Morris, or anyone else.

Wyden later made the non-disclosure explicit in a September 30 MeidasTouch interview, saying he was not naming the interviewed person in order to protect his source. That narrows the problem: this is not merely a missing descriptor in the letter. Wyden publicly indicated that the identity is known within his investigative channel and is being withheld deliberately to protect sourcing. The public still lacks the banker’s name, employer, interview date, FBI serial and producing investigation.

Three Deutsche-linked FD-302s are already public

Direct review of DOJ Data Set 9 produced three genuine FBI interview reports tied to Deutsche’s Epstein relationship. GAH downloaded the DOJ files, preserved the originals, and locked their SHA-256 hashes before comparing their contents.

The Hill-McFadden / Quigley conflict is evidence, not noise

Hill-McFadden described a compliance environment in which internal suspicious-activity reports could face pushback and said she found 102 politically exposed-person cases sitting in deferred status. She also described raising concerns about Epstein-related payments and asking to stop working on the accounts.

Quigley later gave investigators a materially different account. She said she had not experienced a culture of suppressing reports and had never been instructed not to escalate a SAIF. On the 102 PEP cases, she said the reviews had been performed and were waiting for required statements to complete the process, while acknowledging they should have been closed more quickly.

Neither 302 resolves that conflict. PRIME timestamps, the underlying case files, emails, SAIF records and KYC workpapers are the receipts needed to adjudicate it. The conflict is exactly why an FD-302 should be treated as an interview record rather than an institutional finding.

Kirby puts Paul Morris inside the onboarding record

Amanda Kirby told investigators that she worked as a relationship coordinator in Deutsche private wealth management and moved onto Paul Morris’s team. She described Epstein as Morris’s only client during the period she worked under him and said she performed Epstein KYC work and processed wire instructions without final approval authority.

Kirby also described creating an open-source background memo before Epstein was onboarded and said Morris knew about Epstein’s criminal background. Her interview contains important limiting evidence too: she said she did not believe Morris had done anything unsavory regarding Epstein and did not recall observing anyone violate bank policy in the Epstein relationship.

The August 2020 Morris email is the open bridge

DOJ Data Set 8 contains a two-page internal FBI email chain, EFTA00037187. In March 2020, investigators discussing a Deutsche Bank investigation asked whether Epstein case agents had spoken with Paul Morris. On August 4, 2020, an FBI sender reported that investigators had engaged Morris the day before, that he had retained counsel, and that they expected to conduct a proffer in the near future.

The email invites colleagues to send questions for the anticipated session. But the document stops there. It supplies no proffer date, no attendance record, no notes, no FD-302 number and no confirmation that the session happened.

Why Morris is a legitimate lead—but not an identification

The Senate Finance Committee’s August 2026 report identifies Paul Morris as Epstein’s relationship manager at Deutsche Bank and says he had previously served as Epstein’s relationship manager at JPMorgan. The report says Morris brought the Epstein relationship to Deutsche and oversaw onboarding. It also says committee investigators sought a transcript of Morris’s civil deposition from both banks and were denied access.

DOJ Data Set 10 adds a separate JPMorgan receipt. EFTA01482084 is a 19-page due-diligence report for Jeffrey Epstein that names Paul V Morris/JPMCHASE as banker of record, records a March 2010 change from Mary C. Casey to Morris, and includes Morris’s March 7, 2011 sponsorship approval of Epstein as a client. GAH preserved and SHA-256 locked the DOJ PDF before this update.

That makes Morris an obvious person to test against the missing-302 question. It does not make him the answer. The civil deposition referenced by the Senate report is not an FBI FD-302, the JPMorgan due-diligence file is not interview evidence, and GAH has found no source that connects Wyden’s unnamed banker directly to Morris.

The bounded corpus search is exhausted

GAH’s October 5 follow-up hunt re-ran banker-interview language across the local EFTA full-text index and checked the known JPMorgan compliance-staff records. The four Set 10 documents surfaced by those names are KYC/due-diligence or internal-email records, not FBI 302s. Fresh searches around banker interviews, JPMorgan interviews, Bank of America interviews, Paul Morris + 302, and the named compliance staff returned false positives or clean nulls.

The FBI Vault’s 22-part Epstein release was also a clean null for JPMorgan, Deutsche Bank, Bank of America and Merrill in the banker-interview sense. The Vault contains Florida-era victim/witness 302s but did not supply this missing banker report. This is a bounded search-negative finding, not proof that no other report exists outside the searched corpus.

The litigation lane is now the prime acquisition target

In Phang v. Blanche, Judge Emmet G. Sullivan’s September 16 order required DOJ to file a certified list of the contents of the administrative record by October 1 and provide the administrative record to the plaintiff by October 15. That certified list matters because it can force DOJ to describe what it treated as part of the EFTA administrative record, creating a documentary place to test the existence or omission of additional interview reports.

GAH’s October 5 docket tracking records a September 30 DOJ motion seeking an extension of the October 1 certified-list deadline. That motion was not yet mirrored in CourtListener/RECAP during this review, and GAH has not preserved a public copy of it. We therefore treat the motion text as a live docket lead rather than a source-locked public exhibit. The next forcing date remains October 15 unless the court changes the schedule.

Claim / source / limit / open slot

What this record does not establish

• It does not establish that Paul Morris is the unnamed banker in Wyden’s September 30 letter.
• It does not establish that the anticipated August 2020 Morris proffer occurred.
• It does not establish that an FBI FD-302 of Morris was created.
• It does not convert Hill-McFadden, Quigley or Kirby’s interview statements into FBI findings or adjudicated facts.
• It does not resolve conflicting witness accounts without the underlying compliance records.
• It does not establish criminal or civil liability by any individual solely from these interview reports.

Why this matters

The reporting value is not that another sensational document exists. It is that the public release can now be reconciled at the interview-report level. Three Deutsche-linked witnesses are visible. A Morris follow-up was contemplated. Morris’s JPMorgan banker-of-record status is separately corroborated. Wyden says another banker interview report exists outside the public production and has explained why he is not naming the person. Those facts define a precise acquisition problem instead of a theory.

The branch now has only three realistic ways to close: Wyden’s protected source becomes public, the Phang administrative-record process identifies the report, or DOJ/FBI releases it later. Until then, the bank and banker remain unresolved by design.
