I stumbled upon this, actually, while I was searching for something else related to the investigation - it came up in the Google results. I haven’t heard anyone else speak about this particular doc; I’m not sure how old it is as it relates to the other batches of files that have been released over the last week or so. But it is especially concerning and upsetting; this allegation gives us some greater context about Epstein’s timeline. It taking place in 1993, so early compared to some of the other more heavy “trafficking” elements - is extremely damning. 

We know that Epstein [did](https://www.realtor.com/news/celebrity-real-estate/jeffrey-epstein-new-mexico-zorro-ranch-will-someone-buy-it/) build his mansion at Zorro Ranch in 1993 (the same year he bought it, but the mansion wasn’t there yet), and we know from multiple sources about the validity of the basement “stripper lounge.” So the December month at the end of the year leads me to believe that it’s possible he would have been able to “bring” individuals to the lounge by the end of the year, if enough time had already been spent constructing it in the past year. 

I don’t mean to come across flippant or dismissive of this tip at all; it made me extremely sad to read. It makes me so angry every time I learn of another person who was harmed by these tyrannical offenders. 

That being said, with as little as we know about Zorro Ranch, I am stowing away whatever can be learned about it. What do you guys think?
