Background
Melissa Dalton was a representative of JPMorgan Private Bank who served as part of the banking team assigned to accounts held by Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and their associated entities. She worked alongside Francisco Villacis as part of the dedicated JPMorgan Private Bank team servicing these high-value clients. Her name appears consistently on bank statements and asset portfolio documents produced during the 2007 period, which were later disclosed as part of legal proceedings.
Based on available evidence, Dalton's role was that of an account officer within JPMorgan's Private Bank division. Her contact information, including a phone number (212-423-5421), appears on various account documents. Internal communications suggest she was involved in day-to-day banking operations, including coordinating FedEx deliveries and relaying contact information for other parties. There is no evidence in the provided documents that she had any personal or social relationship with Epstein or Maxwell beyond her professional banking duties.
A separate reference in one document (efta-efta01879355) mentions a 'Melissa Dalton' as co-author of a publication about Iran, Israel, and nuclear issues alongside Dr. Colin H. Kahl. It is unclear whether this refers to the same individual or a different person with the same name.
