Cops remain baffled over raid on Jeffrey Epstein's $18M New Mexico ranch where ... trends now
Police in New Mexico appear to be no closer to solving the mystery surrounding a raid of Jeffrey Epstein's $18m ranch that saw 40 of his guns stolen from his cache.
The burglary occurred at Jeffrey Epstein's Zorro Ranch in August 2018 and saw thieves steal a host of weapons including handguns, rifles, and antique weapons from a gun locker in a garage on the property.
The 8,000-acre Zorro Ranch outside of Santa Fe, was implicated in sexual abuse allegations against Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell and where some women and children accused him and Maxwell of sexually abusing them.
Epstein's wanted to use the ranch 'to have 20 women at a time impregnated,' reported the New York Times in an article detailing his dream to 'seed the human race with his DNA.'
Epstein told scientists and others about his sick scheme - although there is no evidence that it ever came to fruition.

The idea was for him to use the 33,000-square-foot New Mexico ranch as a base where women would be inseminated with his sperm and would give birth to his babies.
Epstein spoke of the plans on several occasions including during a 2001 dinner at his New York townhouse and then again during a 2006 conference that he hosted in St. Thomas in the Virgin Islands.
Epstein would often speak of his interest in tinkering with genes and perpetuating his own DNA.
He would also speak of cryonics, an (unproven) science in which the bodies of people are frozen, only to be brought back to life in the future.
Several women reported having been raped and assaulted there when they were underage.
Maria Farmer, a survivor of assaults by Epstein and Maxwell, has previously claimed the ranch had surveillance cameras across the property with 'pinhole cameras' capturing activities across the estate.
The police report from the New Mexico Department of Public Safety and obtained by the DailyDot details how property managers Amber and Steve Chavez only discovered the burglary the day after the raid on August 26, 2018.
They were alerted after finding a broken window in a garage and a stolen gun safe containing an estimated '30-40' guns, according to the report by Officer Jordan Burd.
Other stolen items included gardening tools including a weed eater and leaf blower.
Officer Burd explained to the Chavezes how he needed serial numbers for each of the weapons in order complete his report but none were forthcoming.
He also called Bryce Gordon, Epstein’s long-time manager at the ranch. Despite the officer leaving several voicemails, his calls were never returned.

In their attempt to track down the culprits, tire tracks could be seen leading from the front of the garage showing the route by which the thieves came and went.
The tracks led towards a dirt road about 1-2 miles off the property. The robbers had cut through a fence that surrounds the entire ranch.
A log cabin together with another property on the ranch was also broken into in which items had been thrown around, although nothing appeared to have been taken.
Five years on from the robbery, despite multiple attempts to obtain serial numbers for the stole guns, police have still not received the required information. The case has since been closed.
