A New Mexico ranch, also the “Playboy Ranch” associated with Jeffrey Epstein, is now at the center of attention in the U.S., and it could pull ex-Prince Andrew back into the headlines once again. State officials have reopened scrutiny of Zorro Ranch, a sprawling estate outside Santa Fe. Some accusers say it served as a remote setting for abuse, and with a new “Truth Commission” gathering evidence and planning public hearings, the questions for investigators still hover over who went there and what happened there.
Ex-Prince Andrew allegedly spent 3 days at Epstein’s New Mexico ‘Playboy Ranch’
The i Paper reported that prosecutors have reopened a probe into the 7,500-acre New Mexico ranch, aka the “Playboy Ranch,” that belonged to Jeffrey Epstein and might involve ex-Prince Andrew in the picture. Per the outlet, the property includes stables as well as a helipad and airstrip. The commission follows the Justice Department’s release of millions of Epstein-related files in January, along with allegations about events at the ranch.
State Rep. Andrea Romero, a Democrat who set up the commission, said records already place Andrew at the property for multiple days, claiming, “We know that he was at the ranch for at least three days, just given the records that we have.” She added, “If he committed a crime in New Mexico or is on the record as committing a crime in New Mexico, we will subpoena him.”
However, any subpoena comes with limits. Romero acknowledged that New Mexico cannot directly enforce it against a British citizen living outside the U.S. Notably, Andrew has never acknowledged a visit to Zorro Ranch, and he has repeatedly denied wrongdoing linked to Epstein.
Annie Farmer, an Epstein survivor, supported the focus on Zorro, telling The i Paper that she felt “really glad” the ranch now faces serious attention, and added, “When I was there, the thing that struck me was that it was like a world unto itself.”
