New Mexico authorities have reopened an investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s former ranch near Santa Fe following the release of new Department of Justice documents. Investigators are acting on a disturbing allegation that Epstein ordered the bodies of two foreign girls to be buried on the secluded property. While previous state probes were closed in 2019 at the request of federal officials, Attorney General Raul Torrez has now launched a "truth commission" to investigate how Epstein operated in secrecy for decades. The current search involves state police and K-9 units, with the property's new owners fully cooperating. Additionally, former U.S. President Bill Clinton recently denied any knowledge of Epstein’s crimes during a closed-door deposition.
