The State Of New Mexico And Their Jeffrey Epstein Negligence

In early 2019, New Mexico Attorney General Hector Balderas’ office began investigating claims from two or more survivors who said they were abused at Epstein’s ranch in southern Santa Fe County. Investigators interviewed victims and reviewed property records—including over 400 pages of state lease documents—before forwarding their findings to federal prosecutors in New York, with plans to assist, not lead, the case. At the time, the AG clarified that they had no intent to file state charges, and victims were not prosecuted within New Mexico.New Mexico faced intense criticism, particularly because Epstein never registered as a sex offender in the state. Under state law, his Florida conviction did not trigger registration requirements. Despite owning the ranch on leased public land, he was not legally obligated to register, a loophole Balderas later sought to close through reform legislation. Until those laws changed, New Mexico remained a jurisdiction where Epstein evaded both prosecution and registry obligations, even though allegations of underage abuse there were well-documented.source:https://nmpoliticalreport.com/2019/07/18/no-epstein-indictment-here-for-now/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
