Jeffrey Epstein won an $80 million lottery ticket in 2008. Epstein’s win in a mail is the latest batch of documents linked to the late convicted child sex offender. “The Zorro Trust (owned by Epstein), won an $80 million lottery ticket in N Mexico,” the document detailed. It can be accessed at the Department of Justice Library.

However, it is not known if Epstein was personally involved in buying the tickets or winning. Bryce Gordon, his longtime ranch manager, is listed as the trustee signing the payout, according to the documents. It came two days after Epstein entered a Florida prison where he received a 13-month sentence under a plea deal in 2008.

The document also notes that “the Zorro ranch owned by Epstein sits near the US Mexican border where most trafficked children are routed before dispersing up the East Coast.” The Zoro farm is back in focus after the release of new documents.
What to know about Zoro FarmsA former employee alleged that Epstein ordered the burial of two ‘foreign girls’ near his farm after they were strangled during ‘rough, fetish sex’.
“What is cursed about Jeffrey Epstein has yet to be written. Did you know that somewhere in the mountains outside of Zoro, two foreign girls were buried at the behest of Jeffrey and Madame G? Both died of suffocation during rough, fetish sex,” the document reads. However, these allegations were not proved.
Epstein owned the ranch until his death, and the estate listed it in 2021 for $27.5 million. It was later sold in 2023 for an undisclosed price. The new owner is shrouded in secrecy but the property has been renamed San Rafael Ranch.
The late financier used Zoro Ranch as a place to host VIP guests, offering more discretion than his infamous island. The Daily Mail reported that Andrew, a disgraced member of the royal family, was among those who visited the premises.
Epstein reacts to winning the lotteryMany people thought that Epstein’s belief, who operated the farm in question, that winning the lottery ticket was no coincidence. Former congresswoman and Donald Trump aide, Marjorie Taylor Green wrote “Epstein won the lottery. $80 million went to the Zorro Trust for Epstein’s Zorro Ranch. Nope, not random at all. Do you think anyone will be held accountable???”.
Another page noted “Epstein won the lottery multiple times for his Zorro ranch near the Mexican border, where sex trafficking was rampant. You’re telling me one of the most well-connected people on the planet randomly won the lottery multiple times? The system is ragged.”
Notably, no lottery fraud or criminal activity involving the jackpot has been proven.
