New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez has filed a civil lawsuit against Jeffrey Epstein’s personal lawyer, Darren Indyke, and accountant, Richard Kahn. The complaint accuses the two men of helping facilitate and conceal Epstein’s sex trafficking operation.

The lawsuit was filed Wednesday in U.S. District Court in New Mexico. It seeks to prevent Indyke and Kahn from receiving bequests worth tens of millions of dollars as coexecutors of the late financier’s estate.

Both men are eligible to receive money from the estate, but Torrez argues they should not benefit because of their alleged participation in Epstein’s trafficking enterprise. He said the remaining resources instead should go to survivors.

“It is unconscionable in my mind that people who actively participated in the efforts of that trafficking enterprise that they should in any way benefit from what is left of his estate,” Torrez said during a Wednesday news conference. “Those resources rightfully belong in the hands of survivors.”

The lawsuit puts renewed scrutiny on two professionals who worked for decades on Epstein’s financial and legal dealings. Indyke and Kahn have repeatedly maintained that they had no knowledge of the convicted sex offender’s crimes.

Daniel Weiner, an attorney for Indyke and Kahn, rejected the allegations in a statement to MS NOW. He said the men “emphatically reject the New Mexico Attorney General’s allegations that they were complicit in or in any way knowingly facilitated Mr. Epstein’s sexual abuse or trafficking.”

Weiner also questioned what motivated the lawsuit and criticized the process leading to its filing. He said the New Mexico attorney general’s office did not ask to speak with either Indyke or Kahn before taking the dispute to court.

“Had the New Mexico Attorney General wanted to learn the actual facts of their professional services for Epstein, the Attorney General or his staff could have reached out to schedule interviews,” Weiner said.

The longtime relationships between Epstein and the two men have faced intense scrutiny following the U.S. Department of Justice’s release of the Epstein files. Despite their extensive work on Epstein’s affairs, both have continued to deny knowing about his criminal conduct.

The Wall Street Journal and The New York Times separately reported last month that federal prosecutors were investigating Indyke and Kahn. The focus of the reported probe was unclear, and MS NOW said it had not verified those reports.

Their lawyer said at the time that neither man had been informed that he was under such an investigation. No further details about the reported federal inquiry were provided.

Indyke and Kahn also testified separately before the House Oversight Committee earlier this year as part of its continuing Epstein investigation. They told lawmakers that no government entity had ever questioned them about Epstein’s crimes.

Torrez announced the New Mexico lawsuit alongside two women who survived abuse by Epstein and his associate, Ghislaine Maxwell. Maxwell is serving time in federal prison for her crimes.

One of the survivors, Anouska De Georgiou, described the lawsuit as a mechanism for holding accountable people who enabled Epstein and Maxwell. “My abuse did not happen in isolation. It could not have continued for as long as it did without people facilitating it, looking the other way or choosing to do nothing to stop it,” she told reporters.

“Accountability cannot end with Epstein and Maxwell. It must extend to those who knowingly made their abuse possible, especially those who stand to profit from it,” De Georgiou said.

Torrez also has a criminal probe underway involving Epstein’s sprawling Santa Fe County property, known as Zorro Ranch. Epstein is believed to have abused women and engaged in other criminal activity at the property.

In August, Torrez sued the Justice Department and accused it of stonewalling New Mexico officials in their criminal investigation of the ranch. The latest civil case now focuses directly on whether Indyke and Kahn may collect millions from Epstein’s estate while facing allegations that they helped his operation continue.
