New Mexico sues Jeffrey Epstein's attorney and accountant over alleged sex trafficking help
NBC News and The Hill reported on October 21 that New Mexico sued two longtime associates of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, his attorney and his accountant. The suit accuses them of facilitating his sex trafficking. The summaries reviewed did not name the court or give the damages sought.
State suits against associates extend accountability beyond Epstein himself. They test whether people who handled his legal and financial affairs can be held liable.
The case follows a longstanding public interest in who helped Epstein. It does not change anything for most readers today.
The state's position, per the reports, is that the two helped facilitate the trafficking.
The defendants' response was not included in the summaries reviewed.
Confirmed: the suit was filed and names the attorney and accountant, per two outlets. Not confirmed: any response from the defendants. Watch for a court filing or statement.
