A former Texas state senator who is now campaigning to be the state’s comptroller purchased Jeffrey Epstein’s New Mexico ranch at auction in 2023 through a family limited liability corporation.
Huffines bills himself as a “courageous MAGA Republican” seeking to “DOGE Texas.” He boasts endorsements from Sen. Ted Cruz, conservative influencer Riley Gaines, and the late right-wing activist Charlie Kirk. Polling released last week showed Huffines holding a steady lead over three other candidates in the GOP primary for Texas comptroller.
Multiple Epstein survivors said they were abused at the ranch, among them “Jane” who said she was abused there at the age of 14. Virginia Giuffre was also pictured at the ranch.
New Mexico lawmakers are pushing for the creation of a bipartisan “truth commission” to get to the bottom of Epstein’s crimes at Zorro Ranch.
One email released by the DOJ claims that a former staffer at Zorro Ranch had information about two women who were killed and buried at the ranch.
James Grayson, chief deputy attorney general of New Mexico’s DOJ, says the claims seem to be unsubstantiated but the department will work to obtain the unredacted email and the redacted name of the sender.
New Mexico Rep. Melanie Stansbury spoke of the depravity in the Epstein files, including the allegations of Zorro Ranch.
