Trump administration should cover up information about Epstein ranch
The Attorney General of the US state of New Mexico, Raúl Torrez, accuses the US Department of Justice of having important documents relating to the case of the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein to hold back. In a letter to Attorney General Todd Blanche, Torrez complains that his office has not been granted access to unredacted files for months, despite multiple requests. This will make it more difficult to prosecute possible crimes on Epstein’s Zorro Ranch property.
The Justice Ministry rejects the allegations. A spokesman said they had already responded to the inquiries from New Mexico and were supporting the investigations there. If there are indications of possible federal crimes, the authority will take action together with the responsible prosecutors.
New Mexico reopened the investigation into possible crimes at Zorro Ranch in February. The trigger was a previously unpublished email alleging that two girls had been buried on the site. Several survivors, including Chauntae Davies and the late Virginia Giuffre, also said they were sexually abused on the ranch. At the same time, a state parliamentary commission is investigating the events surrounding the property. You can read more about the Zorro Ranch here.
