A furious attorney general who says acting Attorney General Todd Blanche has been stonewalling his Jeffrey Epstein investigation has filed suit against the Justice department, according to a new report.
New Mexico Democratic Attorney General Raúl Torrez filed his lawsuit Wednesday after nearly a month of publicly accusing Blanche of “causing real and escalating harm” to state lawmakers’ ongoing probe into Zorro Ranch , the Guardian reported .
Zorro Ranch is the sprawling compound alleged to be central to the disgraced financier's disturbing plan to “seed the human race with his DNA.”
Torrez had reached out to the DOJ nearly half-a-dozen times over a five-month period requesting original documents related to Zorro Ranch, but had not received a single response, The New York Times previously reported , potentially compromising New Mexico officials’ probe into the compound.
An apparently fed-up Torrez issued the DOJ a deadline of last Friday to comply with its requests.
