新墨西哥州检察长拉乌尔·托雷斯对已故富豪杰弗里·爱泼斯坦的律师达伦·英迪克和会计理查德·卡恩提起民事诉讼，指控他们隐瞒其性贩运犯罪并从中获利 1。两人作为爱泼斯坦遗产的执行人，控制其估值约6.35亿美元的资产 1。诉讼依据为联邦《贩运受害人保护法》和新墨西哥州《敲诈勒索法》 1。
检方声称，英迪克和卡恩在爱泼斯坦位于圣菲附近的Zorro Ranch隐瞒虐待事件 1。两人于2019年8月被指定为遗产执行人，两天后爱泼斯坦在监狱中自杀 1。被告方面，两人的律师否认参与犯罪并拒绝诉讼指控 1。
尽管两人同意向幸存者提供赔偿，但赔偿协议附带条件，禁止接受赔偿的受害者对他们提起进一步法律诉讼 1。作为信托受益人，英迪克和卡恩在索赔解决后各有可能获得数千万美元 1。
New Mexico's attorney general has filed a civil lawsuit against Darren Indyke and Richard Kahn, accusing them of concealing Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking crimes and profiting from the concealment 1. The two men, who serve as executors of Epstein's estate controlling approximately $635 million in assets, are alleged to have obstructed victims' access to compensation 1.
Attorney General Raoul Torres contends that Indyke and Kahn hid abuse incidents occurring at Zorro Ranch near Santa Fe 1. The lawsuit, brought under the federal Trafficking Victims Protection Act and New Mexico's racketeering statute, specifically targets their conduct as estate administrators 1. Indyke and Kahn were designated as executors on August 9, 2019, just two days before Epstein's death in prison 1. Through their attorneys, both men have denied involvement in any crimes and rejected the allegations 1.
A further complication arises from compensation agreements the defendants have offered to survivors: these settlements include provisions barring recipients from pursuing additional legal action against Indyke and Kahn 1. As trust beneficiaries, each could potentially receive tens of millions of dollars following the resolution of claims 1.
