Pressure the DOJ to hand over the Epstein records New Mexico has been requesting since February. Attorney General Raul Torrez has been waiting more than 130 days for a substantive response — while witnesses become unreachable, memories fade, and evidence degrades. That is not bureaucratic delay. That is obstruction.
Epstein owned Zorro Ranch in New Mexico for over 30 years. Allegations of sex trafficking there have never been fully investigated because a 2019 state probe was suspended at federal request. The DOJ now holds the exact records needed to resume that investigation, and it is sitting on them. No administration — regardless of party — gets to use federal inaction as a shield against accountability for crimes committed against children in this state. New Mexico's truth commission is already underway. The federal government needs to get out of the way and comply.
