Commission tasked with discovering and revealing past wrongdoing
POPULARITY
The New Mexico Survivors' Truth Commission's 119-page interim report described Zorro Ranch as a major and largely neglected component of Jeffrey Epstein's broader operation, concluding that authorities failed for years to seriously investigate what happened there. According to the Commission, Epstein maintained an elaborate, highly controlled compound in New Mexico where survivors reported sexual abuse and where young women were routinely transported, housed and brought into Epstein's orbit. The report pointed to witness testimony, flight records, seized electronic evidence and FBI material suggesting that Zorro Ranch was integrated into the same system of recruitment, secrecy and exploitation seen at Epstein's other properties. Among the evidence discussed were computer folders labeled “ZORRO,” discs referencing nude photographs associated with the ranch, accounts of young women arriving by aircraft, efforts to impose restrictive nondisclosure agreements on workers, and survivor statements describing abuse in New Mexico. The Commission stressed that the evidence remained under review and that allegations involving individuals named in the report were not final findings of wrongdoing, but it said the existing record was already sufficient to show that Epstein's activities in New Mexico deserved far more scrutiny than they ever received.The report was especially critical of institutional failures, saying New Mexico and federal authorities effectively passed responsibility to prosecutors elsewhere while Epstein's conduct in the state went largely unexamined. It said the U.S. Attorney's Office for New Mexico and state officials expected the Southern District of New York to handle Epstein, but New York prosecutors concentrated on crimes tied to New York and Florida rather than building a New Mexico case. Zorro Ranch was never searched while Epstein was alive and, according to the report, was not subjected to a comprehensive law-enforcement search until March 2026, nearly seven years after his death. The Commission concluded that this passivity allowed evidence to disappear, memories to fade and potential criminal cases to become more difficult or impossible to prosecute. It also opened separate lines of inquiry into Epstein's financial dealings, his relationships with scientific institutions and wealthy associates, and the conduct of banks, including subpoenas to Deutsche Bank and JPMorgan. Its clearest interim observation was devastating: Epstein continued exercising wealth and influence after becoming a registered sex offender, operated much of his system in plain sight, and New Mexico law enforcement's decision to rely on other jurisdictions left the conduct of Epstein and his co-conspirators in the state “unexamined and unpunished.” Final findings and recommendations were deferred while the Commission continued issuing subpoenas, interviewing witnesses and searching for additional survivors and potential perpetrators.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:NM Survivors' Truth Commission — Interim Report
Jeffrey Epstein was reportedly in possession of firearms at his Zorro Ranch in New Mexico even after his 2008 Florida felony conviction, raising questions about why he was never prosecuted for what authorities themselves had identified as potentially illegal gun possession. The New Mexico Survivors' Truth Commission cited documentation indicating that Epstein maintained control over firearms at the ranch after becoming a convicted felon. A July 2009 policy concerning security at Epstein's properties specifically noted his felony status and acknowledged that federal law prohibited convicted felons from knowingly possessing firearms or ammunition. The commission also reported that Epstein had weapons spread across multiple properties, including residences in Florida and the U.S. Virgin Islands, and that he had previously held a concealed-carry license.The records suggested Epstein was well aware that his conviction created problems for his ability to legally possess guns. In 2014, he emailed attorney Erika Kellerhals asking whether his civil rights could be restored so that he could own a firearm, and she reportedly told him that he could not and instead suggested hiring armed security. Other records indicated that Epstein closely tracked where weapons were stored and had previously instructed employees regarding firearms at his properties. The revelations add another unanswered question to Epstein's post-conviction treatment: despite documentation suggesting that authorities knew a convicted felon continued to exercise control over firearms, there was apparently no resulting federal firearms prosecution before his 2019 arrest on sex-trafficking charges.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Epstein Was in 'Possession of Firearms' Even After 2008 Conviction

The New Mexico Survivors' Truth Commission's 119-page interim report described Zorro Ranch as a major and largely neglected component of Jeffrey Epstein's broader operation, concluding that authorities failed for years to seriously investigate what happened there. According to the Commission, Epstein maintained an elaborate, highly controlled compound in New Mexico where survivors reported sexual abuse and where young women were routinely transported, housed and brought into Epstein's orbit. The report pointed to witness testimony, flight records, seized electronic evidence and FBI material suggesting that Zorro Ranch was integrated into the same system of recruitment, secrecy and exploitation seen at Epstein's other properties. Among the evidence discussed were computer folders labeled “ZORRO,” discs referencing nude photographs associated with the ranch, accounts of young women arriving by aircraft, efforts to impose restrictive nondisclosure agreements on workers, and survivor statements describing abuse in New Mexico. The Commission stressed that the evidence remained under review and that allegations involving individuals named in the report were not final findings of wrongdoing, but it said the existing record was already sufficient to show that Epstein's activities in New Mexico deserved far more scrutiny than they ever received.The report was especially critical of institutional failures, saying New Mexico and federal authorities effectively passed responsibility to prosecutors elsewhere while Epstein's conduct in the state went largely unexamined. It said the U.S. Attorney's Office for New Mexico and state officials expected the Southern District of New York to handle Epstein, but New York prosecutors concentrated on crimes tied to New York and Florida rather than building a New Mexico case. Zorro Ranch was never searched while Epstein was alive and, according to the report, was not subjected to a comprehensive law-enforcement search until March 2026, nearly seven years after his death. The Commission concluded that this passivity allowed evidence to disappear, memories to fade and potential criminal cases to become more difficult or impossible to prosecute. It also opened separate lines of inquiry into Epstein's financial dealings, his relationships with scientific institutions and wealthy associates, and the conduct of banks, including subpoenas to Deutsche Bank and JPMorgan.

New Mexico's legislative “truth commission” investigating Jeffrey Epstein's activities in the state released its initial 119-page report, concluding that authorities had failed for years to adequately investigate what occurred at Epstein's Zorro Ranch near Santa Fe. The commission said federal investigators had concentrated primarily on Epstein's crimes in New York, Florida and the U.S. Virgin Islands while allegations involving New Mexico were largely left unexplored. The report also criticized state and local authorities for relying on federal agencies rather than aggressively investigating potential crimes within New Mexico themselves. Lawmakers said the commission's work was intended to determine not only what happened at the ranch, but whether failures, negligence or possible public corruption allowed Epstein to operate there with little scrutiny for decades.The initial report did not appear to unveil a large body of previously unknown evidence, instead assembling information from public records, prior reporting, released Epstein documents and survivor accounts as the commission continued its investigation. Among the testimony considered was that of survivor Rachel Benavidez, who alleged that Epstein abused her at Zorro Ranch in the late 1990s. The commission's release came as New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez was separately pursuing a reopened criminal investigation and suing the Justice Department for records he said federal officials had refused to provide. Together, the legislative inquiry and the attorney general's investigation represented a renewed effort to examine Epstein's New Mexico operation, identify who may have participated or enabled it, and determine why meaningful scrutiny of Zorro Ranch had taken so long.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:New Mexico's legislative truth commission on Epstein releases initial report | News | santafenewmexican.com

The report pointed to witness testimony, flight records, seized electronic evidence and FBI material suggesting that Zorro Ranch was integrated into the same system of recruitment, secrecy and exploitation seen at Epstein's other properties. Among the evidence discussed were computer folders labeled “ZORRO,” discs referencing nude photographs associated with the ranch, accounts of young women arriving by aircraft, efforts to impose restrictive nondisclosure agreements on workers, and survivor statements describing abuse in New Mexico. The Commission stressed that the evidence remained under review and that allegations involving individuals named in the report were not final findings of wrongdoing, but it said the existing record was already sufficient to show that Epstein's activities in New Mexico deserved far more scrutiny than they ever received.The report was especially critical of institutional failures, saying New Mexico and federal authorities effectively passed responsibility to prosecutors elsewhere while Epstein's conduct in the state went largely unexamined. It said the U.S. Attorney's Office for New Mexico and state officials expected the Southern District of New York to handle Epstein, but New York prosecutors concentrated on crimes tied to New York and Florida rather than building a New Mexico case. Zorro Ranch was never searched while Epstein was alive and, according to the report, was not subjected to a comprehensive law-enforcement search until March 2026, nearly seven years after his death. The Commission concluded that this passivity allowed evidence to disappear, memories to fade and potential criminal cases to become more difficult or impossible to prosecute. It also opened separate lines of inquiry into Epstein's financial dealings, his relationships with scientific institutions and wealthy associates, and the conduct of banks, including subpoenas to Deutsche Bank and JPMorgan. Its clearest interim observation was devastating: Epstein continued exercising wealth and influence after becoming a registered sex offender, operated much of his system in plain sight, and New Mexico law enforcement's decision to rely on other jurisdictions left the conduct of Epstein and his co-conspirators in the state “unexamined and unpunished.” Final findings and recommendations were deferred while the Commission continued issuing subpoenas, interviewing witnesses and searching for additional survivors and potential perpetrators.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:NM Survivors' Truth Commission — Interim Report

New Mexico's legislative “truth commission” investigating Jeffrey Epstein's activities in the state released its initial 119-page report, concluding that authorities had failed for years to adequately investigate what occurred at Epstein's Zorro Ranch near Santa Fe. The commission said federal investigators had concentrated primarily on Epstein's crimes in New York, Florida and the U.S. Virgin Islands while allegations involving New Mexico were largely left unexplored. The report also criticized state and local authorities for relying on federal agencies rather than aggressively investigating potential crimes within New Mexico themselves. Lawmakers said the commission's work was intended to determine not only what happened at the ranch, but whether failures, negligence or possible public corruption allowed Epstein to operate there with little scrutiny for decades.The initial report did not appear to unveil a large body of previously unknown evidence, instead assembling information from public records, prior reporting, released Epstein documents and survivor accounts as the commission continued its investigation. Among the testimony considered was that of survivor Rachel Benavidez, who alleged that Epstein abused her at Zorro Ranch in the late 1990s. The commission's release came as New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez was separately pursuing a reopened criminal investigation and suing the Justice Department for records he said federal officials had refused to provide. Together, the legislative inquiry and the attorney general's investigation represented a renewed effort to examine Epstein's New Mexico operation, identify who may have participated or enabled it, and determine why meaningful scrutiny of Zorro Ranch had taken so long.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:New Mexico's legislative truth commission on Epstein releases initial report | News | santafenewmexican.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

The Commission stressed that the evidence remained under review and that allegations involving individuals named in the report were not final findings of wrongdoing, but it said the existing record was already sufficient to show that Epstein's activities in New Mexico deserved far more scrutiny than they ever received.The report was especially critical of institutional failures, saying New Mexico and federal authorities effectively passed responsibility to prosecutors elsewhere while Epstein's conduct in the state went largely unexamined. It said the U.S. Attorney's Office for New Mexico and state officials expected the Southern District of New York to handle Epstein, but New York prosecutors concentrated on crimes tied to New York and Florida rather than building a New Mexico case. Zorro Ranch was never searched while Epstein was alive and, according to the report, was not subjected to a comprehensive law-enforcement search until March 2026, nearly seven years after his death. The Commission concluded that this passivity allowed evidence to disappear, memories to fade and potential criminal cases to become more difficult or impossible to prosecute. It also opened separate lines of inquiry into Epstein's financial dealings, his relationships with scientific institutions and wealthy associates, and the conduct of banks, including subpoenas to Deutsche Bank and JPMorgan. Its clearest interim observation was devastating: Epstein continued exercising wealth and influence after becoming a registered sex offender, operated much of his system in plain sight, and New Mexico law enforcement's decision to rely on other jurisdictions left the conduct of Epstein and his co-conspirators in the state “unexamined and unpunished.” Final findings and recommendations were deferred while the Commission continued issuing subpoenas, interviewing witnesses and searching for additional survivors and potential perpetrators.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:NM Survivors' Truth Commission — Interim ReportBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
New Mexico's legislative “truth commission” investigating Jeffrey Epstein's activities in the state released its initial 119-page report, concluding that authorities had failed for years to adequately investigate what occurred at Epstein's Zorro Ranch near Santa Fe. The commission said federal investigators had concentrated primarily on Epstein's crimes in New York, Florida and the U.S. Virgin Islands while allegations involving New Mexico were largely left unexplored. The report also criticized state and local authorities for relying on federal agencies rather than aggressively investigating potential crimes within New Mexico themselves. Lawmakers said the commission's work was intended to determine not only what happened at the ranch, but whether failures, negligence or possible public corruption allowed Epstein to operate there with little scrutiny for decades.The initial report did not appear to unveil a large body of previously unknown evidence, instead assembling information from public records, prior reporting, released Epstein documents and survivor accounts as the commission continued its investigation. Among the testimony considered was that of survivor Rachel Benavidez, who alleged that Epstein abused her at Zorro Ranch in the late 1990s. The commission's release came as New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez was separately pursuing a reopened criminal investigation and suing the Justice Department for records he said federal officials had refused to provide. Together, the legislative inquiry and the attorney general's investigation represented a renewed effort to examine Epstein's New Mexico operation, identify who may have participated or enabled it, and determine why meaningful scrutiny of Zorro Ranch had taken so long.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:New Mexico's legislative truth commission on Epstein releases initial report | News | santafenewmexican.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
The New Mexico Survivors' Truth Commission's 119-page interim report described Zorro Ranch as a major and largely neglected component of Jeffrey Epstein's broader operation, concluding that authorities failed for years to seriously investigate what happened there. According to the Commission, Epstein maintained an elaborate, highly controlled compound in New Mexico where survivors reported sexual abuse and where young women were routinely transported, housed and brought into Epstein's orbit. The report pointed to witness testimony, flight records, seized electronic evidence and FBI material suggesting that Zorro Ranch was integrated into the same system of recruitment, secrecy and exploitation seen at Epstein's other properties. Among the evidence discussed were computer folders labeled “ZORRO,” discs referencing nude photographs associated with the ranch, accounts of young women arriving by aircraft, efforts to impose restrictive nondisclosure agreements on workers, and survivor statements describing abuse in New Mexico.

Many soldiers in Ukraine are spending long periods on the front lines, as Ukraine struggles against Russia's numerical advantage. One infantryman, in the trenches for nearly a year and a half straight, tells us his story. Also: today's stories, including how the Trump administration is stepping in as AI models are evading corporate controls; how a bipartisan Truth Commission in New Mexico is aiming to tell the story of what happened at Zorro Ranch, formerly owned by convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein; and how a new law signed by Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey will narrow cooperation between the state and federal immigration authorities. Join the Monitor's Mackenzie Farkus for today's news.
New Mexico Senate Republicans, led by Minority Leader Bill Sharer, called on the state's bipartisan Epstein Survivors' Truth Commission to subpoena Democratic gubernatorial candidate Deb Haaland and U.S. Rep. Melanie Stansbury. Sharer pointed to a 2014 campaign flight Haaland took on an aircraft arranged through Epstein and to an alleged connection between one of Stansbury's former employers and Ghislaine Maxwell. Haaland's campaign said she never interacted with Epstein and did not know how the flight had been arranged, while Stansbury categorically denied having any relationship with Epstein or Maxwell and said she was willing to testify. Independent reporting had also found that the aircraft Haaland used was not Epstein's personal plane, undercutting Sharer's more inflammatory characterization of the trip.Sharer framed the subpoena request as a test of whether the commission was genuinely nonpartisan, but his motivation deserved skepticism. The commission had been created to investigate alleged abuse, institutional failures and public corruption connected to Epstein's Zorro Ranch, yet Sharer's demands focused heavily on two prominent Democrats, including one running for governor, while relying on connections that appeared indirect or disputed. Seeking testimony from anyone with potentially relevant knowledge was reasonable, but describing Haaland as having flown on “Jeffrey Epstein's private jet” and suggesting that Stansbury had meaningful Epstein ties went beyond what the publicly established facts supported. That made the effort look at least partly like an attempt to weaponize the Epstein investigation for partisan advantage rather than a narrowly tailored effort to uncover what happened at Zorro Ranch and why authorities failed to act.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
