Renewed criminal probes of Epstein’s New Mexico estate

New Mexico authorities have reopened a criminal investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s Zorro Ranch, prompting active searches of the property amid allegations that victims may be buried there. Attorney General Raúl Torrez and federal lawmakers, including U.S. Sen. Ben Ray Luján, are pressing for a full accounting of any crimes connected to the ranch. Investigators are examining financial and logistical records, with former associates such as Epstein’s accountant providing testimony. The renewed focus aims to uncover potential evidence long overlooked and deliver greater accountability to Epstein’s alleged victims.
