AustriaThe attorney general of the U.S. state of New Mexico, Raul Torrez, has filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Justice over alleged obstruction of investigations into activities by sexual predator Jeffrey Epstein. The state claims the department is hindering the release of unredacted documents, which are crucial for ongoing probes into allegations of abuse, human trafficking, and other sexual offenses at Epstein’s Zorro Ranch in the Santa Fe County. Torrez previously accused the department of refusing cooperation, and a spokesperson for the Justice Department called these accusations 'false,' stating that releasing the documents would violate laws. The Department of Justice has not yet commented on the latest developments.
