qwant news | Epstein survivor recalls the ’cold, dark, eerie feeling’ of being at the infamous Zorro Ranch

A survivor of Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse described the chilling atmosphere of his New Mexico “Zorro Ranch” on a BBC Newsnight special, saying the property felt “cold, dark and eerie” and that “the majority of the assaults happened” there. Chauntae Davies recalled being trapped in the secluded house, noting how the trauma has haunted her adult life, damaging her marriage and leaving her hyper‑vigilant about her daughter’s interactions with men.

Another survivor, who chose to remain anonymous under the pseudonym “Nicky,” recounted being drugged and raped by Epstein at his Palm Beach mansion when she was 19. She explained that she had taken a job giving him a massage after a friend’s introduction, only to endure repeated sexual assaults, forced undressing, and a mysterious “water” that left her with no memory of the next twelve hours. Nicky later reported the abuse to the FBI in 2019, describing lingering physical illness, panic attacks, and difficulty recalling the events despite therapy.

Additional testimonies on the program highlighted the long‑term psychological damage suffered by Epstein’s victims. Jena‑Lisa Jones said the abuse led her down a “very dark path” and forced her to monetize her own body, while Joanna Harrison, speaking publicly for the first time, expressed how the constant media presence of the case makes healing nearly impossible. All the survivors became emotional when holding photos of their younger selves, underscoring the profound, lasting impact of Epstein’s exploitation.

"New Mexico Representative Melanie Stansbury, who as a member of Congress has had a look at the unredacted files. “I spent a fair amount of my time this morning looking at the files on Zorro Ranch,” she told reporters last month. “There aren’t words to describe what are in those files.” Stansbury has repeatedly emphasized to the press that “both girls and boys” were abused at the ranch."
