A civil court document from the Epstein Files — filed in Palm Beach County litigation — contains a survivor's 2009 sworn testimony naming four New Mexico officials: Gary King, Jim Baca, Greg Solano, and Bill Richardson. The testimony alleges these men had knowledge of Epstein's finances and his sexual exploitation of minors. That document has reportedly been ignored by New Mexico officials for 17 years. That ends now. Open a formal investigation. A survivor put her account on the record under oath. The names are specific. The allegations are serious. The fact that this testimony sat untouched for nearly two decades is itself a failure that demands scrutiny. New Mexicans deserve to know whether the people entrusted with power in this state protected a predator's network or simply looked the other way. Launch an investigation, compel testimony, and make the findings public.
