New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez is doing Todd Blanche’s job, actively pursuing accountability for Epstein survivors. And Blanche continues to decline to act on referrals. Last week, AG Torrez filed a federal civil lawsuit against Epstein’s longtime attorney Darren Indyke and accountant Richard Kahn, alleging they knowingly facilitated and concealed Epstein’s sex trafficking operation, including abuse at Zorro Ranch. It makes perfect sense to block the $75 million in estate bequests and create a fund for the survivors. AG Torrez is trying to eliminate the statute of limitations for human trafficking prosecutions and increase the penalties. He enjoys bi-partisan support. What’s Speaker Mike Johnson doing? Blocking Epstein Files Transparency Act II, which allows survivors, state prosecutors, and members of Congress to sue DOJ for withholding Epstein-related records. No floor votes allowed. This is exactly the same tactic the speaker used to block the original EFTA. Ever since the FBI briefing slide of co-conspirators was created, there’s been zero arrests in the U.S. in connection with the horrific crimes of Jeffrey Epstein or Ghislaine Maxwell. There’s clearly a much larger network of co-conspirators. Survivors and advocates are spot on: the names are out; the money is documented; the committee votes are unanimous; and the one institution with the power to charge anyone is the same institution accused of obstructing the investigation.
