State authorities in Santa Fe County, New Mexico, are actively investigating new claims of abuse at Jeffrey Epstein’s Zorro Ranch. The allegations include the drugging and rape of young men and women.
A documentary released on Sunday provided testimonies from alleged victims detailing how they were targeted at the ranch. This follows a February reopening of the probe by state authorities after the Department of Justice disclosed millions of files linked to Epstein.
Since then, New Mexico officials have been working to identify additional victims, potential co-conspirators, and even allegations that two girls were buried near the site by a former ranch employee. Reports indicate multiple young men were among the victims of Epstein and his associates.
“Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell were serial abusers, they really were super predators, and it was just how they lived their lives,” said Rep. Melanie Stansbury (D-NM).
The investigation involves collaboration with New Mexico’s Truth Commission, a bipartisan panel examining crimes tied to Epstein at the ranch. Only one individual from the state has come forward as an alleged victim, raising questions about the scale of human trafficking in this case. The report also notes that young men now feature prominently among the victims—a shift from previous patterns where women and girls constituted the vast majority.
