So in New Mexico not only was his house not raided, they took him off the sexual offenders registry. So why hasn't anybody been going crazy about that? Nobody has any Questions for the authorities in New Mexico. Okay, I guess. The Santa Fe Alt Weekly said his removal came because of the differences between laws in New Mexico and Florida, since the victims in the case Epstein pled guilty to were were not under the age of 16. The State Department of Public Safety told the Santa Fe County Sheriff that Epstein did not need to appear on the registry. Must be nice. Yeah. But Jeffrey Epstein, he didn't choose New Mexico for a reason or anything, right? Just happened. All the places he could spend this money on a ranch happened to be this place. Epstein had ties to New Mexico. In addition to his ranch, Epstein donated $50,000 to the re election campaign of Governor Bill Richardson in 2006. $15,000 to Gary King in 2006 for his run for Attorney General, and $10,000 to Jim Baca in his 2006 campaign for State Land Commissioner. The candidates, each Democrats, donated the money to charities or returned the money. So you have him here donating to a man named Jim Baca and the person giving the statement, he is also named Baca. My guess is they're related. Look, you couldn't even make this shit up if you were writing some kind of half assed novel. Companies connected to Epstein also donated more than $30,000 to King's unsuccessful 2004 gubernatorial campaign. King returned the contributions another of Epstein's companies had donated to other candidates, including Richardson, previously. The candidates returned or donated the money. Epstein bought Zorro Ranch from the family of former Governor Bruce King in 1993. Gary's father, Epstein has ties to a number of powerful and influential people, including former President Bill Clinton, current President Donald Trump, Prince Andrew and Alan Dershowitz. So folks, again, what is going on in New Mexico? Why wasn't there a concurrent investigation? And how can they look themselves in the mirror and be okay with what they did down here? Because obviously a lot of girls were victimized, a lot of women were victimized, and there has been no justice. And it doesn't seem like any is coming in New Mexico. So my question is, and I'll leave it for you to ruminate with, why wasn't there a concurrent investigation being run in New Mexico?

What's up everyone? And welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles on this look back episode. We're going to take a trip down to New Mexico and we're going to explore why charges were never filed in the state against Jeffrey Epstein. This article was published by New Mexicopoliticalreport.com and it was published in 2019. The author of this article is Jeff Proctor. Headline no Epstein Indictment here for now. Investigators with the New Mexico Attorney General's office plan to turn over any information they gather about alleged sex crimes committed here by by Jeffrey Epstein to federal prosecutors as soon as possible. A spokesman for the AG says, yeah, how did that work out? How'd that investigation, the statewide investigation down in New Mexico work out? Oh, that's right. There never was one. Nobody ever raided Zorro Ranch. Nobody showed up there and kicked in any doors. Maybe if Epstein was selling crack instead of trying to sell humans, people would have shown up. But unfortunately the priorities all over the board are screwed up and down in Mexico, it certainly is no different. It's laughable at this point, honestly, that there's no state investigation into Epstein or his ties. And in my opinion, a lot of that has to do with how corrupt things are down in New Mexico. That means for now, Attorney General Hector Balderas team is working as fact gatherers for the U.S. attorney's office in the Southern District of New York where Epstein pleaded not guilty last week to charges of sex trafficking of minors and sex trafficking conspiracy. Says Matt Baca, senior counsel for Balderas office well, the crimes that were committed in New Mexico, we've only scratched the surface. We've only heard from some of the more, you know, out front survivors. What about the girls we've never heard of? And you mean to tell me that Epstein wasn't engaging in the same sorts of things he was engaging in in New York and in Florida, bringing young girls from schools and elsewhere to the ranch? Of course he was. But when you don't have an attorney general or a legal office in the state that is willing to go hard and willing to put in the miles to figure out what happened, then this is the result. They kick the ball down the road, they punt it away and they hope somebody else takes care of it. At this point, it's primarily been communication between the two offices, Baca tells Santa Fe reporter in New Mexico in depth on Wednesday. As soon as we're done or at a place where we feel we have significant investigative materials to turn over to them, we plan to do that. You know what? Someone should file a Freedom of Information act against the state government in New Mexico and try and get access to everything that they're supposedly sending over to the feds. Because it really makes me sick to see the way things went, went about here in New Mexico, especially considering when you look at the horrible rate of abuse from for native women and minority women in the state of New Mexico. They have an abhorrent track record. So how many of these trafficked women to Epstein or otherwise have never had a say? How many of them have never had their moment to stand up and say, hey, this happened to me? So the fact that there's no state investigation in New Mexico is just mind boggling. And I really can't figure out how that it could be possible that they can in their brains think it's a good idea not to have a state investigation. He says the AG isn't working on an indictment here, but noted nothing is off the table in terms of, in terms of a possible, of possible state level charges. Well, there's nothing being worked on because your boy Bill Richardson, right, because of the Kings, because of all of the other power players in New Mexico that are probably, and again, this is my speculation, by the way, probably pressuring the AG's office not to dig further. They don't want their ties unwrapped. Right? And how many of these people who were power players in New Mexico were playing with Jeffrey Epstein? We know that the Kings were. That's where he got the ranch. And we know that Bill Richardson was a big friend of Jeffrey Epstein's. And we know that he is being credibly accused by Virginia Roberts of taking part in not only enabling Epstein, but, but of actually abusing the girls as well. So it's not. When you start putting the pieces together, it's not too shocking that the state of New Mexico has no desire to go hard here. Baca confirms that two or more women have told prosecutors in New Mexico they are victims of Epstein, who owns the massive Zorro Ranch in southern Santa fe County. The AG's office began investigating allegations against Epstein in February or March. He says, independent from the SDNY investigation. So was it February or was it March? Why do we let them get away with playing word games? We want to know exactly when the investigation started and we want an update on it. We want to know where it is. They'll never do that though, because really, are they even investigating it? And I know that sounds cynical, right, and borderline conspiratorial, but I just don't have any faith in these governments, in these legal institutions that supposedly are there to protect the most vulnerable amongst us because they never do. All they do is further the crimes of their buddies who are stuff in their pockets full of money. Epstein, 66, pleaded guilty in Florida to federal sex trafficking charges in 2008. He has not been charged or convicted of any crimes in New Mexico. However, multiple women have alleged that they were sexually victimized as minors at Epstein's ranch here, including the women who came forward this year and are working with Balderas investigators. So again, if you're Balderas, how don't you open a state investigation? How do you only rely on what the feds are doing? Don't you owe it to the people of your state, the people who appointed you as Attorney General to pursue justice in their name? Why are you kicking the can down the road? Why are you passing the rock? Meanwhile, State Land Commissioner Stephanie Garcia Richard on Tuesday handed more than 400 pages of records to Balderas office documenting current and expired state trust land leases with Cypress Inc. A Virgin Islands based company that her records show Epstein still owns. He transferred the deed for the ranch to that company in 2013. It comprises about 7,600 acres and completely surrounds a parcel of state trust land. Now he transferred this for a reason, right? He transferred it over to the Virgin Islands so he'd have more protection in the case of him dying, so he'd have more protection of keeping his property out of the hands of those he abused. That was his goal. This dude was a scumbag till the very last breath, folks. The two agricultural leases on that land total more than 1200 acres. Two active livestock grazing lease contracts date to 1997 and 1999 and were renewed in 2016. An expired livestock contract was signed in 1993. Garcia Richards says in a news release she is reviewing all leases with Cyprus thoroughly for possible lease violations. And we know that she eventually did hit them with a lease violation and they were forced to give that land back. Baca confirms that Balderas office received the documents and is reviewing them. We will definitely incorporate the documents into our review and take into account how the land leases might impact anything that we're looking at or if there's any other action that might be taken out of what they provided, he says, adding that it's too early to say how the leases might impact a state or federal criminal investigation into Epstein. You know, the state of New Mexico. Their desire was nothing more than to have this case go away. That is my true belief. And it's unfortunate because Balderas had a chance. Him and his office had a real Chance to make a difference here. How many of these girls that were abused in Mexico feel like they've been abandoned? How many of these girls who were abused in New Mexico see that there's no investigation in their state so they decide to clam up? If my state doesn't even care, why should the federal investigators,

A (20:16)

The team at

B (20:17)

Belderos office reviewing allegations against the one time influential and politically connected financier, pedophile, works out of the Special Investigation Division. Baca says investigators in that division have worked on recent high profile cases that resulted in successful prosecutions against former State Senator Phil Grigo and former Secretary of State Diana Duran. Yeah, those are low hanging fruit, right? Certainly not powerful like Epstein. Certainly not powerful like Bill Richardson. So to try and give their investigation some credibility, what they say is, oh well, the Special Investigations Division's working on this one. Yeah. How well did that work out? Did they do anything with that investigation? Did they indict anybody? Was anybody ever brought up on any charges in New Mexico? Oh, no, nobody was.

C (21:09)

Right.

B (21:11)

Epstein chose New Mexico for several reasons. One, he had the political connections there. Two, he didn't have to register as a sex offender there. Three, the Santa Fe Institute was very close and he needed access to his menagerie of scientists, didn't he? And New Mexico is continuing just to beat it, beat to their own drum. Nothing has changed. So the next Jeffrey Epstein out there, why not use the same template? Why not just move to Mexico, buy some land and then do whatever you want? You could talk about ceding the human race, have 10 person orgy showers, bring little girls in and nobody will care because that's basically what the Attorney General's office in New Mexico has said. Meanwhile, I know from experience, and I know from my own trips there and discussions with people in New Mexico that the people want action. Unfortunately, their politicians are obviously bought and paid for. Baca says he doesn't know whether AG's investigators have interviewed Epstein or spoken to anyone with his legal team. Right now we, we are somewhat of, we are at somewhat of an early investigative stage, he says. Oh yeah, and they've stayed at that early stage.

C (22:26)

Right.

B (22:27)

It never got any off the ground to be anything more than that investigative stage. And it's laughable at best the way that they've conducted themselves as far as the authorities in New Mexico throughout this whole thing. It's been a sham. It's been embarrassing, honestly. And the fact that they continue to conduct themselves like this is unbelievable, honestly. But we've seen it throughout the whole entire Epstein debacle. We've seen the way the government and the law enforcement agents turn the other cheek. Don't pay attention to what goes on. And we see how it took national pressure after an article was dropped by the Miami Herald to get any action whatsoever kicked in. But here we are all these years later and still we have not seen Zorro Ranch raided and no state investigation. My question is why? If you'd like to contact me, you can do that@bobbycapucciorotonmail.com that's B O B B Y C A P U c c I protonmail.com you can also find me on Twitter at B O B B Y underscore cap Ucci. The link that we discussed can be found in the description box. All right, folks, I'll be back later on. I hope all of you have a great day.

C (23:59)

Article and it was published in the Santa Fe New Mexican and the author is Milan Simonich. And the headline, tax record show Jeffrey Epstein's power and influence in a Life of Wealth, Sex crimes and Deal Making. Jeffrey Epstein commanded attention. Yeah, attention from everybody, authorities, et cetera, et cetera, right? Jeffrey Epstein was the kind of guy that you look at what he was involved in, right? You look at how long and how brazen he was in his operation. And when you have all of the facts in this case as we know them, everything that has been presented so far, and you look at the big picture here, it's laughable that people could say they had no idea what this guy was up to. I mean, come on, so did his 7,759 acre Zorro ranch in Santa Fe County. Eight months after Epstein hanged himself, allegedly in a jail cell after being charged with sex trafficking of girls in New York and Florida. The ranch remains controversial for sure.

A (25:10)

And this is what I was just

C (25:11)

talking about in the, in the opening of the show. It's. I'm bewildered why this ranch hasn't been raided, why evidence hasn't been pulled from this ranch and put into a safe place. And I say that, and I try not to be sarcastic saying it, considering we've seen how the evidence has been handled in his supposed suicide. So I guess a safe place, that's a, that's a stretch for the government at this point, but at the very least, raid the place, right? At the very least, raid this place and see what's what. But nope, we haven't seen any of that. I guess no crimes were committed at the Zorro Ranch, folks. I guess there's nothing to see at the Zorro Ranch. Its centerpiece is a hilltop mansion covering 26,700 square feet. It contains four of the 26 bedrooms distributed throughout a compound. The rest are spread across seven more dwellings, according to Santa Fe county tax records. Well, when I was there, from the gate, you could see a complex with. There was a yellow building, a building that was modeled after a firehouse, I believe, and some other various complexes that were used to house workers, etc. Etc. But you couldn't see the mansion from the front gate where I was at. I, even when I was using the zoom on my camera, I didn't get. I wasn't able to see the mansion. So from the front gate, all you can see is the other dwellings that they're talking about here. Yet the value of that land is listed by the county government at only $10,000. See what I mean?

A (26:52)

$10,000, huh?

C (26:54)

Yeah, sure. He greased no pockets, he gave no handshakes. None of that happened. Come on, we're all on the up and up. Have you ever heard of a politician corrupt and crooked? I mean, it's like the whole entire country is being run by Tammany hall right now, and bossman Tweed is the head honcho. It's such a joke. Every district, you look at every single state, these, these, these thieves and these con artists find their way into places of power, and the rest of us suffer in the aftermath. Santa Fe resident David Brown says the assessor's office had a practice of undervaluing Epstein's property and handing tax breaks to a tainted but powerful man. Of course he did. So now, in my opinion, whoever the assessor is, the assessor should be looked at again. That should all be part of the overarching RICO case. Wrap it all up in a nice little bow. All of these people that were involved with sweetheart deals for Epstein, all the people in the Virgin Islands who gave him the permits for the banks, etc. Etc. Etc. Everybody wrapped up in a nice little bow. Everybody rounded up and everybody interrogated. With the threat of RICO charges, which carry 20 year sentences thrown at them, do you really think these people are going to hold up in the face of that, or do you think they're going to start turning on each other in record numbers? Epstein's land is valued at $10,000. My tiny Vista Primera lot is valued at $72,000. Brown said. I mean, come on, folks. It's so blatant and it was so obvious what they were doing. And the fact is, they didn't care if the rest of us knew, because we don't mean anything to them. We're less than shit on the shoe to these people. These people are so incredibly warped in their way of thinking and how they go about their lives that literally, people like you and I mean nothing to them. Santa Fe County Assessor Gus Martinez told me Brown's comparison is statistically correct but deceptive. Oh, of course. There's always a but in there, right? The assessor always has to come out and say, well, wait a minute, we're not as. It's not as bad as it looks. We're not as horrible as we look in this case, and here's why. And they'll run into some BS excuse. And we're about to hear that. Now you've got to look at the total value of the property, martinez said. Brown and I have done that. The assessor last year valued the structure on Epstein's ranch at $15.68 million. Agricultural land was worth another 40,819. Altogether. That gave Epstein's ranch a value of $15.74 million. His real estate taxes for 2019 were $109,577. Martinez said the ranch's value and taxes are projected to increase a bit this year. Even with the coronavirus pandemic devastating the economy. Brown isn't appeased by the assessor's explanation. Look, in situations like this, why should an ordinary citizen not ask questions? Why should an ordinary citizen who knows he's getting jobbed when he looks at his land value and Epstein's land value and then looks at the numbers, he knows he's getting robbed and job by the state. While a convicted sex offender, a human trafficker, was again getting hooked up another rich person on a sweetheart deal, folks. In 2010, with the country in a recession, Epstein's ranch had a value of almost $20 million for tax purposes. The valuation dropped by 5 million in succeeding years before starting a slight climb. Brown's theory is that Epstein's power and political connections kept the ranch from receiving much attention or a property tax bill. And you find that way out to

A (30:58)

left field of something that couldn't occur.

C (31:01)

Considering what we know about Epstein, considering we know how he was quick to

A (31:05)

get into the ear of local politicians

C (31:08)

and throw them dough for their reelection campaigns and for charities. And money on the side probably. I mean, we saw it with scientists. I, I would think that Jeffrey Epstein would probably, probably be delivering money on the side to some politicians as well. Epstein in 1993 bought land in Stanley for what would become his ranch. The seller was Bruce King, who was New Mexico's sitting governor and one of the state's legendary politicians. King, a Democrat, served longer as governor than anyone in New Mexico history. He held the office for 12 years. And again, it just shines a light on the sort of company Jeffrey Epstein kept in places like Santa Fe. Bruce King was a power player, folks. 12 years as the governor, that's a big deal. That's a big card to have in your pocket, right? That's a big card for you to drive around with in your pocket in case shit goes south. A direct line to Mr. King. A direct line to Mitch, Mr. Richardson. A direct line to Donald Trump. A direct line to Bill Clinton. You catch my drift yet, folks, you see where we're going with this? Epstein, who made millions managing a hedge fund, allegedly didn't have the calloused hands of a rancher. That's the state. The. The understatement of the year, huh? The calloused hands of a rancher. Guy never did a day's real work in his life, I'm guessing, but longhorn cattle grazed on his property, accounting for most of the compound being taxed at a rate for agricultural uses. This is why Brown's single home lot is valued nearly at. Excuse me. Valued at nearly twice the amount of the 7,700 acres that Epstein owned. By no standard was Epstein's property a typical ranch. It had an aircraft hangar and a landing strip. Butlers worked in the mansion. Guest houses dotted the grounds. And we know that at least one of his employees owned 40 acres and a house on that property. And that is pilot Larry Vasoski. We know that not only did he own a property there, we know that his daughter was married on the property. A winner on Wall street, allegedly, Epstein had access to politicians who dwarfed King's stature. Epstein was friendly with two men who became president. Democrat Bill Clinton and Republican Donald Trump. But all politics is local. Epstein contributed cash to candidates seeking a variety of offices in New Mexico, and I touched on that earlier. In the lead into the program, Epstein spread around dough to local politicians. He knew how the game was played. He knew that you had to grease the palms. Locally, he had everything on wrap federally, right? He didn't have to worry about federal cases at this point. His handlers took care of all of that. He had to make sure he was navigating these states correctly. He had to make sure he was greasing enough palms so that if shit started to go south, he could make a phone call and get it squashed right away. And what Better place for that than in the middle of the desert. In New Mexico, Democrat Bill Richardson, who was governor from 2003 to 2010, received $50,000 in campaign contributions from Epstein. And again, Richardson is on another level than the enablers that we're talking about, the Bruce Kings, the Donald Trump's, the Bill Clintons. Those folks are enablers as of now. Right. We have nobody who has come forward within this case and say that they were part of the actual trafficking. As of now, they're at ablers. But Bill Richardson, that's a different story. According to Virginia Roberts. And, and as I've said a bunch of times on the podcast, if you believe her about one of the incidents, you have to believe her about all of them. And I most certainly do. She is very credible with her story. Her story has never changed. She has always been on point and most importantly, she's brought evidence to the table, pictures, corroborating witnesses, etc. Etc. So Bill Richardson is on a whole different level of scumbag than the enablers. And in my opinion, Bill Richardson certainly must be brought in and questioned. But what you see here is again, Epstein rolling with fellow travelers, people who are like minded, people who think the same as him, act the same as him and are not afraid to hang out with a monster like him. Because guess what? When the curtains are drawn and when all is equal, all of these people are on a level playing field. They're all the same kind of scoundrel, all of these so called elites, in my opinion, they're all, they're all just twisted people. It seems like they're like, like that their minds are all corrupted. The more we research into this case and the more we find out about the so called polite society, especially in New York, the more I'm sickened by their behavior. Spice up your Richardson sent the money to charity after Epstein in 2007 was ensnared in his first scandal alleging sex crimes. Many other politicians disassociated from Epstein at that point. Or did they publicly anyway, but behind the scenes, privately, we don't know the verdict is still out. And those are questions that definitely need to be answered. Right? We need. Look who was hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein behind the scenes. We've already had a bunch of people get outed that said they weren't doing that. You got Jess Staley, you got Glenn Dubin. Yeah, just keep going. A bunch of people. And when all is said and done, what we find out is that these people have been lying about their associations with Jeffrey Epstein. Police in Palm Beach, Florida, and FBI agents investigated complaints that Epstein had recruited girls as young as 13 to have sex with him in his in his waterfront mansion. The federal government declined to prosecute Epstein. Instead, he, he pleaded guilty to two state charges of soliciting prostitution, one for procuring a girl younger than 18. All right, well, again, you can't be a child prostitute, okay? Impossibility in my opinion. If you are underage and these sick ass, gross ass, 55, 60 year old, super powerful men are bringing you within their orbit and they're grooming you for sex work, that doesn't make you a prostitute, that makes you a trafficking victim. Epstein received a sentence of 18 months in jail. It turned out to be much lighter. He was allowed to go to his office in Palm beach on a work release program. A judge freed Epstein after He had served 13 months. Alex Acosta was the U.S. attorney who had declined to pursue federal charges against Epstein in Florida. Acosta went on to serve as Trump's Secretary of labor from 2017 to 2019. And you know, the cynic in me wonders, would all of this interest, would all of this interest that we've seen from the Miami Herald and elsewhere, would they have went as hard in the paint after this story if it wasn't for the Acosta connection to Trump? And I'm not saying they shouldn't have went after it. They should have. Acosta had no business being in that position after his involvement in this case. But the cynic in me says that the legacy media, including outlets like the Miami Herald, only went after this at the beginning because of the Trump angle. Now, of course, that doesn't demean what they uncovered and that doesn't demean the work that they did. But we have to be honest with what, what their motivations probably were here. And we've seen it in the legacy media. Right? Don't you think it's pretty interesting that after Acosta resigned and there was no more connection really there, that the legacy media had, that they, all of a sudden they don't have interest in the story anymore. And I think that's a, a, a bad look for the mainstream media because there's a lot more there to be uncovered. Donald Trump certainly had tied ties to Jeffrey Epstein, folks. There's not even a question about that. There is zero question that Donald Trump was enabling Jeffrey Epstein's behavior for years. No different than Bill Clinton, no different than any of these other powerful, powerful people that were running around in circles with this guy. But the cynic in me asks Would the legacy media have ever even initiated looking into this if it wasn't for Acosta? And it's depressing to think about things like that, right, that only if there's political gain will the legacy media chase stories down. And I, I mean that for the legacy media in general, folks, it is just, it's gross to watch the way they conduct themselves. And, you know, the cynic in me has asked that question numerous times. Again, it doesn't demean the good work that they did. Following. Right. It does not demean the good work that they did after their original motivation to jump into the case. Because I've been very upfront about my original motivations was government corruption in this case. I had no idea the scope and the misery Jeffrey Epstein caused when it came to these survivors. Right. I had no idea really about the whole Palm beach thing. I only knew a little bit about what was, what happened with Virginia. I hardly knew anything about Maria Farmer or Annie Farmer. And then you start reading the case and you start digging into it and you start researching it, and your motivations, you know, they change you. You're interested in the case for other reasons. And I, I, you know, for me, it's, it's been just a journey down this rabbit hole that has really opened my eyes. So I've always wondered what initiated the interest. At the point in time when we see the interest from the legacy media and we see them going after this story, it just always made me wonder as I've looked back on the case now as it's unfolded and we've had some time to look back on it. I, I just, I hope that the legacy media wakes up one day and they understand that this is not about politics, this case, and it's not about a gotcha moment. These are real, real people, these girls that live through this. These aren't just names on a page. These aren't just, you know, people to use as a political football to try and score points for your tribe. These are real people with, with dreams and goals, and they had their lives pretty much snatched from them. So I just, I just hope that the legacy media one day wakes up and understands just what is at stake when it comes to stories like this. On becoming a cabinet secretary, Acosta would say the case against Epstein was not airtight. The Florida plea bargain at least labeled Epstein as a sex offender, Acosta said. And also remember what Acosta said. He said that he was told by intelligence that it was hands off, that Epstein was above his pay grade, basically. So let's Remember that part, too. Federal prosecutors last July brought a new round of sex trafficking charges against Epstein. They accused him of preying on teenage girls in Florida and New York. Epstein said all his sexual encounters were consensual, and he believed his partners were at least 18. Yeah, okay. Absolute lie. No jury heard the evidence. Epstein, 66, killed himself before the case could proceed. Allegedly. Epstein was never accused of committing crimes in New Mexico. I mean, really. Yes, he was. Yes, he was. But the allegations against him in the east refocused attention on his ranch and what might have happened there. Come on. There is zero chance that Epstein and his buddies weren't up to all sorts of disgusting behavior on that ranch. To act like there are no allegations of. Of misdeeds on that ranch is just. Wow, wow, wow, wow. Martinez, the assessor, says Epstein's money and influence didn't matter in New Mexico. Nah, New Mexico is just on the up and up, right? That would never matter in New Mexico. We have some of the greatest politicians ever from New Mexico. I mean, Bill Richardson, such an upstanding guy. Come on, really. Setting the value of Epstein's property was difficult from the start. The assessor added, there was not a house that big in the state of New Mexico. We had nothing to compare it to. The assessor said, more excuses. You're paid to make that decision, buddy. You're paid to make sure that that decision is made. Well, nobody wants to hear. Well, there was nothing to compare it to. Well, then you set the market. You set the price line. That's your gig, bro. At one point, Epstein protested the taxable value of his ranch and mansion as excessive. This lessened his tax burden. Martinez told of other factors that worked in favor of Epstein. His mansion showed where. Such as cracking walls and dropped the value after the reduction. State law was an obstacle to raising Epstein's taxes even as real estate prices escalated. Yeah, that's because the state laws. I know this is going to. This is going to come as a shock to all of you folks, right? I'm going to really drop something on you right here. Okay? You ready? That's because all of the state politicians and the people who write the laws in the state, they're crooked, too. So is it a shock to you that the laws are crooked and that the laws favor the rich? It shouldn't. They're the ones that write these rules. They're the ones that write the laws. So guess what? Just like a computer programmer who wants to access the program at some time, they'll write in a backdoor to Their own law. Funny that, isn't it? Unless a property has been upgraded or expanded, taxes can increase no more than 3% annually. The dude did all kinds of upgrades on that property.

This is just.

This is just disgusting. We're doing work with our hands tied behind our back. Martinez said to be sure tax bills are insignificant compared to charges of a man preying on teenage girls. Epstein's suicide turned in, turned the case cold. He remains in a Florida cemetery. Most of what happened in New Mexico is buried with him. On that point, I do not agree. There are witnesses to what happened in New Mexico. There are a number of nameless girls who were assaulted in New Mexico. And there are are people who definitely, definitely knew what Epstein was up to there, starting with Ghislaine Maxwell and the Core 4 for 1. So instead of all of these excuses and all of this BS from the local politicians of New Mexico's version of Tammany hall, why don't they get their asses in gear and do their job and initiate their own investigation within their state?

Is that too much to ask from

the people who are hired to do just that?

I mean, I know it's asking for

too much for them to pursue, you know, a child sex trafficking ring that was conducting business within your state. I know that's a lot to ask you to do and you have better things like, you know, arresting people for having marijuana in their car or whatever. But, you know, maybe, just maybe, you folks could get your shit together and initiate an investigation. You know, that would be nice, right? Again, we see it in every state Epstein operated in, folks. In every place he was active. We see the absolute and utter corruption at the top. Wherever Epstein was involved, there is corruption to be sniffed out. And it's not even a question at this point that he was completely wetting the. Wetting the beak of every one of these local politicians that he could get in his atmosphere. It's not even a question. So why has this investigation not been initiated? What are they protecting? Who are they protecting within New Mexico? That's the question I'm asking. What do you folks think? Why do you think that the New Mexico ranch has not been raided? Shoot me some emails and let me know what you think about the New Mexico ranch and the non investigation within the state, New Mexico.
