STANLEY, NEW MEXICO — Tuesday, Aug. 18, 2026 — It’s been nearly two weeks since New Mexico’s Attorney General Raúl Torrez filed a federal lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Justice and Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche.
And yet, the state’s criminal investigation into alleged sex trafficking, grooming, and abuse at Jeffrey Epstein’s former Zorro Ranch continues to move like molasses.
In fact, the accusations of “stonewalling” date back to 2019 when New Mexico alleges that federal prosecutors told them to ‘stand down’ from their investigation following Epstein’s federal arrest.
At the time, the DOJ promised to eventually share relevant materials once they finished their own investigation, leading New Mexico to pause its probe and turn over key evidence, including timely access to witnesses, victims, and other intel.
However, the promised sharing never occurred, and federal authorities never searched the property.
To this date, unredacted Epstein-related investigative files and materials have not been provided to the New Mexico Department of Justice (NMDOJ).
Which is why the current suit claims that the DOJ’s refusal not only violates the Administrative Procedure Act, but breaks prior promises and interferes with the state’s sovereign authority to investigate crimes within its borders.
Clearly, Zorro Ranch is a location of prime importance.
After reopening its investigation this past February and searching Zorro Ranch with cadaver dogs and ground-penetrating radar in March, the NMDOJ has more than highlighted the pertinence of its activities.
After all, publicly released Epstein Files contain more than 13,000 references to the ranch and roughly 5,000 to New Mexico.
And yet, despite numerous requests for unredacted records starting in February and March 2026, the NMDOJ has found limited help.
The DOJ maintains court protective orders limiting disclosure of victim-identifying information, all the while saying it remains willing to assist “consistent with the law and binding court orders.”
According to the bipartisan New Mexico Survivors' Truth Commission, which released a ~119-page interim report the same day as the lawsuit, the DOJ has a lot to answer for.
The report compiled a comprehensive timeline of Epstein’s ownership starting in 1993, and included:
Detailed operations via a large mansion, private airstrip, staff NDAs, significant payroll, and flight logs showing hundreds of trips
Documents alleging abuse of at least five women and girls from the mid-1990s to ~2012, including recruitment via local spas
Highlights of institutional failures by law enforcement
Notes on sex-offender registration loopholes that benefited Epstein in New Mexico
Criticisms of the lack of prior federal prioritization of New Mexico victims
Calls for a full release of withheld DOJ records under the Epstein Files Transparency Act; and
Plans for further subpoenas, including a final report due by year-end
The darkness may go deeper, literally and figuratively, than any federal authority will ever plumb.
Take, for instance, an anonymous 2019 email from an alleged former ranch employee stating that two foreign girls died “by strangulation during rough, fetish sex” and were buried “somewhere in the hills outside the Zorro” on orders of “Jeffrey and Madam G.”
Then you have the allegations of “grave-like plots,” which another anonymous tipster claimed to have trespassed in 2020. The supposed trespasser claims that these plots appeared to have had bodies removed, even sharing photos with New Mexico lawmakers.
However, to this day, these claims remain unverified…
But, as they say, where there is smoke there is fire.
According to Maria Farmer, an Epstein accuser, Epstein specifically told her that all of his residences contained “mechanical rooms and tunnel systems,” enormous basement surveillance rooms that were “bigger than houses” and replete with computers and pinhole cameras.
Farmer went on to say that these cameras were virtually everywhere, but cleverly hidden so that you would never know they were there unless directly shown them:
One survivor, Annette Church, went even further, alleging a purpose for these underground labyrinths that many people have speculated: torture.
Church described forced drowning, torture, and experiments in a tank at the ranch:
“Sometimes I was again blindfolded, sometimes I was not blindfolded. Either way, it was horrifying. Sometimes I felt the water level rising higher and higher,” Church said. “Other times it terrorized me while I watched it rise until it engulfed me. A gag would both muffle my screams and help water enter my lungs faster.”
Forced into the tank many times as a pregnant teenager, Church never discovered what happened to her unborn babies.
“I don't remember being taken out of the tank, so I have no idea whatsoever what may have happened to my babies, but I remember cramps and bleeding…
Were my babies buried at Zorro Ranch?”
Clearly, it’s sickening if even a scintilla of these alleged activities are true.
What could have happened? Were her babies turned into “beef jerky”?
What were the torture tanks for? Just psychopathic pleasure?
How about the countless computers and gadgets and mechanical rooms?
Why the need for ubiquitous surveillance?
Why the need for deep underground tunnels and complexes bigger than homes?
And what about those supposed graves…
If any of this is remotely true, what is the DOJ hiding? What are they trying to keep the NMDOJ and the public at large from discovering?
According to New Mexico AG Torrez, the federal authorities’ conduct is nothing short of “arbitrary and capricious, an abuse of discretion, and not in accordance with the law.”
The withheld and redacted information seemingly covers it all. Whether it’s the names and identifying details of victims abused at Zorro Ranch, the names of witnesses with knowledge of the abuse or trafficking, the names of Epstein’s “inner circle,” the identities of visitors to the ranch, or the names of ranch staff, employees and contractors, the DOJ is keeping its information hermetically sealed.
And then we have the transhumanism.
For anybody familiar with Epstein, it’s clear that the guy liked his science.
That is, he had a notable penchant for not just the everyday disciplines of biology, chemistry, physics, and so on, but an apparent dying desire to turn humanity into his own personal petri dish.
“Epstein dreamed of improving humanity by using his sperm to impregnate scores of women at his New Mexico ranch — and also wanted his penis and head frozen after death so they could eventually be reanimated.”
According to multiple award-winning scientists, Epstein often shared his plan to turn Zorro Ranch into a baby-making factory, even aspiring to have 20 women at a time impregnated at his 33,000-square-foot complex.
Perhaps it’s no surprise that Epstein consistently kept the top scientists, from the late theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking to the late Nobel Prize-winner Murray Gell-Mann, well within his circles.
Another ranch survivor, Chauntae Davies, claims that she overheard conversations at the ranch about “creating the perfect baby from the perfect gene pool.”
Designer babies?
Baby farming?
Black-market baby sales?
Although we’ve received no official confirmation that any such programs existed at the ranch, could all these women really be lying? Misremembering? So broken by the psychological and physical torture that they can’t recall what’s real and what’s not?
Whatever is going on here, it’s clear that both the NMDOJ and the public at large are being kept in the dark.
Could it be as bad as they say?
Even worse?
After all, if we’re talking about a Satanic Transhumanist Cabal that operates at the highest echelons, including psychopaths and literal pedovores, then nothing is off the table.
Which might explain why all of it was so quickly memoryholed.
Think about it. We went from seemingly everybody - mainstream news anchors to ‘conspiracy theory’ investigative journalists - talking about Epstein, to now almost nobody mentioning it.
What changed?
How did they skew public attention and shift the minds of the masses so rapidly?
Easy, like they always do. With a new shiny object. A new major event. A new, all-so-important distraction.
And frankly? Bluntly?
If we’re being honest, it could not have been easier…
