Located in Stanley, south of Santa Fe, the home’s 7,600 acres remained under the ownership of Epstein. “That’s a pretty big ranch,” Santa Fe County Assessor Gus Martinez told KRQE. “It is a remote property. The only way you can get access is really through the ranch hand, and so you can’t just really drive into that property because the gates are closed.” Over the years, women came out accusing the New York-based investor of sexually abusing them at his New Mexico ranch. Though he was never charged with a crime in New Mexico, the compound has been painted as integral to his alleged sex trafficking operation by multiple women who claim they were trafficked and raped at the ranch. Epstein also reportedly had plans to make it a baby-making factory where he would inseminate victims.
