Epstein's former New Mexico ranch searched in criminal investigation

Source: Scripps News

Posted 6:34 PM, Mar 09, 2026 and last updated 7:10 PM, Mar 09, 2026

Authorities in New Mexico conducted a search Monday at the Zorro Ranch property previously owned by convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Officials said the search is connected to a criminal investigation announced Feb. 19 into allegations of illegal activity at Epstein’s ranch before his death in 2019.

New Mexico Public Lands Commissioner Stephanie Garcia Richard requested the probe after reviewing a 2019 email from an alleged former Epstein staffer. The email claimed two girls were killed and buried on public land leased near the ranch, about 30 miles southeast of Santa Fe.

The redacted email was part of recently released documents from the U.S. Department of Justice.

I hope the investigation is VERY thorough. I hope they scan the whole property with ground penetrating radar.

Did they use cadaver dogs or ground penetrating radar? It'd take a long time to search it properly.

I think trump is waiting to see if they find anything before going even more crazy to distract.
