New Mexico state investigators have begun investigating a desert ranch once owned by Jeffrey Epstein, Zorro Ranch, and are supported by other state and local law enforcement. This is potentially the first thorough examination of the ranch and comes after a renewed effort to investigate Epstein's alleged crimes in New Mexico. State leaders have stated that allegations against Epstein have never been fully investigated. The ranch, now owned by Dallas real estate tycoon Don Huffines, has agreed to cooperate with the state’s investigation. Despite challenges, New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez remains committed to completing the investigation and releasing a report after.
