So Epstein had a private desert kingdom with a mansion, an airstrip, young girls being trafficked across continents, and law enforcement searched his island, his NYC mansion, his Paris place, his Palm Beach estate
But the massive ranch where half the survivor stories happened? Nope. Not touched. Not once.
The DOJ literally told New Mexico, Dont investigate. We got this. And then didnt search the ranch. And now the FBI wont even comment.
Imagine a 10,000-acre crime scene sitting out there like: Hello?? Anyone?? Maybe check the basement? The barn? THE MANSION??
But sure, tell us again how they were doing everything possible.

(18,276 posts)I'm not sure if you've seen his campaign ads, they are straight up NAZI looking. Extremely creeping ads and he is just plain creepy.
Plus Don Huffines bought the property sight unseen, never step foot on the property. Who does that?

(18,276 posts)From what I've researched but haven't exactly documented on my own, is Epstein had left Zorro to a close friend, that eventually sold it to Huffines. I'll have to see if I can find the info again.
Here's some wiki info:
In 2019 the Federal Bureau of Investigation acquired search warrants for other properties owned by Epstein, namely Herbert N. Straus House and Little Saint James, but there was never an FBI raid on the ranch. This is despite Virginia Giuffre stating that she experienced sexual abuse from Epstein and his associates at Zorro Ranch.
In the years following Epstein's death, the ranch had remained largely unused until it was sold to San Rafael Ranch LLC for an undisclosed sum rumoured to be far lower than the asking price in 2023. The ranch was purchased by the family of Texas businessman and politician Don Huffines. Huffines, a former GOP state senator from Dallas, is running a high-profile campaign for comptroller a publicly elected position in Texas overseeing state financial matters. The name of the ranch has been changed to Rancho de San Rafael.
In 2025, state legislators in New Mexico pushed for an inquiry into the Zorro Ranch and Epstein's activities there. In 2026, the New Mexico Legislature's House prepared an investigatory committee due to files released under the Epstein Files Transparency Act that alleges there are buried bodies on the land.
Something is fishy in the landlocked desert of New Mexico.

IA -July 2008, a Powerball jackpot drawing (July 2, 2008) had an advertised annuity value of around $85 million (cash option roughly $4142 million pre-tax). The winning ticket was sold at a convenience store in Altus, Oklahoma (not New Mexico, despite some misreports). The prize was claimed by an entity called the Zorro Trust, which opted for the lump-sum cash payout and received approximately $29.3 million after taxes in August 2008.
This Zorro Trust is the same legal entity Epstein used for various holdings, including donations in New Mexico and ownership/management ties to his Zorro Ranch (the ~10,000-acre property in Stanley, New Mexico). Contemporary news reports from outlets like The Oklahoman (August 2008) confirmed the trust as the winner, with Brice Gordon (Epstein's longtime ranch manager) signing as trustee for the payout. The trust structure allowed anonymity under lottery rules at the time.
The timing is suspicious to many: Epstein had just begun his controversial 13-month Florida jail sentence (starting late June 2008, with work-release privileges), following his 2008 plea deal. Conspiracy theories online suggest this was not legitimate luck but a form of money laundering, rigged draw, blackmail payout, or hidden funding mechanismespecially given Epstein's unexplained wealth sources and the ranch's alleged role in his crimes.

I also have to approach all of this in small increments. It's so horrifying that I can't stand to read much about it at one time.

I live less than an hr from that ranch. Super dry country- even for NM. He also leased thousands of acres of grazing gov land around ranch for like $2.00 an acre to make him even more remote.
