THE BARE STORY
New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez filed a federal civil lawsuit Wednesday against Jeffrey Epstein’s former personal lawyer, Darren Indyke, and accountant, Richard Kahn.
The suit, filed in U.S. District Court in New Mexico, alleges that Indyke and Kahn helped finance, facilitate and conceal Epstein’s sex trafficking operation, including abuse of girls and young women at Epstein’s Zorro Ranch in Santa Fe County. The complaint seeks to prevent the two men from receiving payments from Epstein’s estate while the case is pending.
Indyke and Kahn are co-executors of the estate and beneficiaries of Epstein’s 1953 Trust. According to the attorney general’s office, the estate is valued at more than $107 million, while Indyke and Kahn could receive bequests of $50 million and $25 million, respectively. The lawsuit alleges Indyke received more than $16 million and Kahn more than $10 million from Epstein and related entities between 2011 and 2019.
An attorney for the estate said Indyke and Kahn deny the allegations and said they neither knowingly assisted Epstein nor knew of trafficking activities while providing professional services. The attorney said the attorney general’s office did not seek interviews before filing the case.
Torrez said his office’s criminal investigation into Epstein’s trafficking operation remains ongoing. No criminal charges have been filed in that investigation.
