DoJ appears to ignore New Mexico deadline for key Epstein ranch files

State attorney general set 31 July deadline for documents relating to abuse of girls at Epstein-owned Zorro ranch

The US Department of Justice (DoJ) appeared to ignore a Friday deadline set by Raúl Torrez, the attorney general of New Mexico, to share information about the abuse of girls at a remote ranch formerly owned by the disgraced financier and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Torrez’s office asked the DoJ in February for unredacted files after he reopened a dormant criminal investigation into activities at Zorro ranch, a remote 10,000-acre property in desert scrub outside New Mexico.
