New Mexico approves truth commission on alleged Jeffrey Epstein ranch abuse

New Mexico has approved a bipartisan "truth commission" to investigate allegations of abuse at Jeffrey Epstein's Zorro Ranch near Santa Fe. The move follows the recent release of investigative documents related to Epstein and aims to uncover the full extent of activities at the ranch, where multiple women and girls have claimed sexual abuse. Despite federal investigations into Epstein's other properties, his New Mexico ranch was never searched, and state investigations were reportedly halted at the request of federal prosecutors. The commission, comprised of state representatives from both parties, will have subpoena power and a $2 million budget to gather testimony and records, with the goal of providing transparency to New Mexico residents by 2026. The commission is funded by a settlement between the New Mexico.
