The DOJ Continues To Refuse To Turn Over Epstein Documents To The State Of New Mexico (8/3/26)

The Justice Department has still not turned over the unredacted Jeffrey Epstein records requested by New Mexico investigators, missing a July 31 deadline imposed by state Attorney General Raúl Torrez. New Mexico reopened its criminal investigation into allegations of sexual abuse and trafficking at Epstein’s Zorro Ranch earlier this year, but the federal government has provided only 31 pages of largely useless material, including heavily redacted records, previously public documents and photocopies of local news reports. Torrez says the withheld files potentially contain the identities of survivors, witnesses, co-conspirators and other individuals who could help investigators determine what crimes occurred at the ranch and whether anyone can still be prosecuted.

The standoff is especially troubling because New Mexico says it suspended its original investigation in 2019 after reaching an agreement with the Southern District of New York, which was supposed to share evidence gathered during the federal Epstein investigation. State officials now say the federal government never honored that commitment. Although the DOJ argues that federal law, court orders and privacy protections prevent it from releasing millions of unredacted documents, New Mexico maintains that prosecutors could seek modifications to protective orders and securely provide the relevant evidence to state law enforcement. Torrez has accused the department of obstructing the investigation and has left open the possibility of taking legal action to force the federal government to cooperate.
