Huffines family conducts exorcism at former Epstein ranch

The Huffines family, owners of the former Jeffrey Epstein Zorro Ranch in New Mexico, has undergone a three-day exorcism of the property conducted by a traditional Catholic priest from Ohio.

Don Huffines, a Dallas real estate magnate and Texas comptroller, purchased the property in 2023 through an LLC and renamed it San Rafael Ranch. The family intends to convert the site into a Christian retreat center. Devin Huffines stated that the family, who are devout Roman Catholics, felt the spiritual aspect of the exorcism was necessary due to the history of the ranch, where several women reported being sexually abused by Epstein.

The family noted that the decision to acquire the ranch was eased by the understanding that the purchase funds would benefit Epstein’s victims. The New Mexico Department of Justice previously reopened a criminal probe into the property, conducting searches with the family's consent.
