EPSTEIN CONTROVERSY RAGES ON: Search launched for two bodies buried on pedophile’s ranch, girls strangled during sexual acts!

The New Mexico Department of Justice announced Wednesday that it is investigating claims, appearing in documents released by the U.S. Department of Justice, that the late sexual offender Jeffrey Epstein ordered the bodies of two young women to be buried outside his remote ranch in New Mexico.

New Mexico DOJ spokesperson Loren Rodriguez said that an uncensored version of a 2019 email containing these allegations had been requested from the federal Department of Justice.

The U.S. Department of Justice did not immediately respond to a request for comment, and the FBI declined to comment.

“We are actively investigating these claims and conducting a broader review in light of the recent release of Department of Justice documents,” Rodriguez said in a written response regarding the case.

The day before, New Mexico’s legislature launched its first comprehensive investigation into allegations that Epstein sexually abused girls and women for more than two decades at the Zorro Ranch, located about 30 miles south of Santa Fe. Pressure from Democratic lawmakers to fully expose Epstein’s crimes has become a significant political challenge for President Donald Trump.

The censored 2019 email, included in the latest document release related to Epstein, was sent several months after his death to radio host Eddie Aragon in New Mexico, who had spoken about Zorro Ranch on his program.

The sender, claiming to be a former ranch employee, demanded payment of one bitcoin in exchange for video footage allegedly taken from Epstein’s house showing the financier in sexual acts with minors.

Aragon told reporters he believed the email was authentic and immediately forwarded it to the FBI. He said he received no payment and had no further contact with the sender, though he recently attempted to respond, only to find the address inactive.

The censored message to Aragon reportedly stated that, under Epstein’s orders, two young women had been buried “somewhere in the hills outside Zorro” and died “from strangulation during rough, fetish sex.”

A 2021 FBI report, also included in the latest release, notes that Aragon visited an FBI office to report the email, which offered seven videos of sexual abuse and the burial locations of the two women at Zorro Ranch in exchange for one bitcoin.

A review of other Department of Justice documents released, conducted by Reuters, did not find additional references to these claims or information on how investigators assessed them.

Last year, the DOJ warned that some files released from the Epstein investigation “contain false and sensational claims,” as well as anonymous allegations investigators had not verified, or in some cases found to be untrue.

New Mexico Commissioner of Public Lands Stephanie Garcia Richard said Wednesday that her office discovered the disputed censored email during a recent review of the latest document release.

In a letter dated February 10 to the U.S. Department of Justice, and in a public statement, Garcia Richard called on federal and state law enforcement to fully investigate claims of criminal activity on Epstein’s ranch and surrounding state lands.

Epstein leased about 503 acres of state land around the ranch in 1993. Garcia Richard terminated those leases in September 2019 after her office determined Epstein was not using the land for livestock or farming, but as a privacy buffer around his estate.

Epstein died in a New York jail in August 2019. His death was officially ruled a suicide.
