New Mexico authorities say they are preparing to revisit the Jeffrey Epstein investigation at his vast Zorro Ranch estate, where a long‑ignored tip alleged that the bodies of two abused girls were buried in the surrounding hills. The fresh Jeffrey Epstein investigation focus on the remote New Mexico property comes years after federal agents first searched the ranch in 2019, following the financier's death in a New York jail.
Zorro Ranch has always sat in the shadow of his infamous Epstein Island, better‑known as Little Saint James, which became shorthand for his abuse network. Yet Epstein bought the New Mexico spread in 1993 from then‑governor Bruce King, reportedly attracted by the state's looser rules on sex‑offender registries and the isolation the land offered.
