"A state house committee rejected accompanying legislation to extend New Mexico's statute of limitations for childhood sexual assault to allow civil actions by Epstein survivors, said state Representative Marianna Anaya, who co-sponsored the legislation to create the truth commission. The legislation raised concerns about increased insurance costs for public institutions facing abuse lawsuits, Anaya said.

That sucks.

"The files reveal ties between Epstein and two former Democratic governors and an attorney general of New Mexico.

The legislation, which passed New Mexico's House of Representatives by a unanimous vote, could pose risks to any additional politicians linked to Epstein in the Democratic-run state, as well as scientists, investors and other high-profile individuals who visited the ranch."

Looks like both sides could face an outcome.

There's always the 80 million Epstein "won" in the NM state lottery while in prison.

Since an Epstein associate now owns the property, wouldn't they want to expose the Democrat malfeasance?

Dude, it's not about left or right, it's up and down. They parasite on poorer, resourceless children and the "outcome" is found buried around the ranch.

If you couldn't put together the dental chair and hydrolic acid, ask yourself "why an ultrasound machine?"
