Where this statement fits
New Mexico sues Epstein's lawyer and accountant, alleging they concealed his sex trafficking; their attorney rejects the claims
New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez sued Jeffrey Epstein's longtime lawyer, Darren K. Indyke, and accountant, Richard D. Kahn, in federal court in New Mexico on October 21, 2026. The State's complaint says the two men facilitated and concealed Epstein's sexual abuse and trafficking, including by arranging payments to survivors and serving as officers of companies tied to his Zorro Ranch near Santa Fe. It asks the court to stop the estate's co-executors from making distributions while the case is pending. Indyke and Kahn, who are the co-executors and are eligible for bequests of $50 million and $25 million, reject the allegations through their lawyer, Daniel Weiner. No court has ruled on the claims.
