Epstein’s attorney and accountant accused of ‘facilitating and concealing’ his crimes in lawsuit

The Attorney General of New Mexico has filed a civil lawsuit against Jeffrey Epstein's longtime attorney, Darren Indyke, and his accountant, Richard Kahn, accusing them of facilitating and concealing Epstein's crimes. The lawsuit seeks to prevent both men from receiving payments from Epstein's estate while the litigation proceeds. Authorities allege that these associates helped sustain a criminal network in exchange for lavish salaries and benefits. Conversely, counsel for Indyke and Kahn has rejected these allegations, maintaining that their clients knew nothing of any criminal conduct. Several survivors have publicly supported the lawsuit, calling for accountability and answers under oath. This legal action follows New Mexico's broader effort to investigate activities at Epstein's Zorro Ranch. The state is currently engaged in a separate legal dispute with the Department of Justice to access unredacted files related to the case. Despite the estate selling the Zorro Ranch property in 2023, New Mexico authorities have resumed investigations into the site. Attorney General Raúl Torrez emphasized that the goal of the lawsuit is to ensure Epstein's assets are distributed to his victims rather than those who allegedly enabled his exploitation.
