Everyone talks about the island and NYC, but the New Mexico property is equally significant.
**Zorro Ranch facts:**
- 10,000 acres in Stanley, NM
- Purchased 1993
- Main house + multiple guest structures
- Private airstrip on property
**Why it matters:**
- Multiple victims have testified about abuse there
- More isolated than other properties
- New Mexico AG investigated but no charges
The Santa Fe trips in the flight logs correspond to this property. The ranch has its own airport code (private strip, not public).

Beyond the US properties, there was international real estate:
**Paris:**
- Avenue Foch apartment
- Purchased through French entity
- GM arrested nearby 2020
**London:**
- Belgravia property (GM's residence)
- Multiple addresses over years
**USVI beyond LSJ:**
- Great St. James (2016 purchase)
- St. Thomas properties for staff
The international property portfolio complicates asset tracing. Different jurisdictions, different disclosure requirements.

JE purchased Great St. James in 2016 for $18M. Less discussed than Little St. James:
**What we know:**

**Construction permits:**

Why buy a second island in 2016? The timing, post-conviction, is notable.
