Mystery of Ghislaine Maxwell’s whereabouts deepens as Epstein accusers eye his alleged madam

The mystery over Ghislaine Maxwell’s whereabouts deepened Wednesday on a put out that the alleged madam for Jeffrey Epstein, an accused child sex trafficker, was holed up in a Massachusetts mansion, as an Epstein accuser ranked suit against Maxwell.

Hours after The Daily Mail reported that Maxwell was living in tech-firm CEO Scott Borgerson’s mansion in Manchester-by-the-Sea, NBC Rumour reported that a property manager of an adjacent parcel of land said that Maxwell was living at Borgerson’s visit as recently as two weeks ago.

Borgenson told NBC, however, “she is not at my home.” He admitted knowing Maxwell.

The speculation over Maxwell come around c regarded as prosecutors and Epstein’s accusers set their sights on her, and on the heels of Epstein’s apparent suicide in jail last Saturday.

In front of Wednesday’s reports, the most recent indication of Maxwell’s location was in 2017, when her civil lawyers reportedly reported a judge she was living in London, but without a firm address there.

Maxwell’s camera shyness in recent years take the side ofs in sharp contrast to her past, when she was photographed with Epstein socializing with President Donald Trump, and auditing the wedding of Chelsea Clinton, whose father, President Bill Clinton, like Trump had been friends with Epstein. In 2016, she sold her Manhattan townhouse for $15 million.

If she remains out of imaginative — and possibly out of the United States — the Oxford-schooled Maxwell could avoid potential civil liability and prosecution related to her relationship with Epstein.

Member of the bars for Maxwell, and a spokesman for the U.S. attorney’s office in Manhattan, which had been prosecuting Epstein, did not return requests for comment.

In the forefront her association with Epstein, Maxwell was best known to the public as the namesake of the Lady Ghislaine, the yacht that her parson, disgraced English media mogul Robert Maxwell, either jumped from or fell from when he mysteriously died at sea, wash ones hands of $4 billion in debt behind.

Maxwell, 57, long has been named by Epstein’s accusers as a woman who recruited underage women so that he could sexually abuse them under the pretext of getting massages at his luxurious properties in Manhattan, Palm Lido, Florida, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. One employer of Epstein’s called Maxwell the “lady of the house,” referring to his mansion in Palm Seaside.

Some accusers have also said Maxwell at times participated with Epstein in abusing them sexually. Maxwell has negated the allegations.

In court documents released last week, a woman named Virginia Giuffre said Maxwell directed her as a young lady to have sex with Prince Andrew of Britain, former Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell, ex-New Mexico Gov. Folding money Richardson, hedge funder Glenn Dubin, late MIT scientist Marvin Minsky, modeling company founder Jean-Luc Brunel, the holder of a large hotel chain, and another prince.

All of the men, with the exception of the late Minksky, denied Giuffre’s claims go the distance week.

“I was told to do something by these people constantly … my whole life revolved around just see fit these men and keeping Ghislaine and Jeffrey happy,” Giuffre said in a deposition released Friday.

“Their whole inviolate lives revolved around sex.”

Maxwell, who has adamantly vamoosed Giuffre’s claims, has never been criminally charged in connection with her relationship to Epstein, her former boyfriend.

But Epstein’s detain last month on charges of child sex trafficking and conspiracy to commit child sex trafficking sparked speculation that Maxwell was expanse the unnamed people in the indictment believed by federal prosecutors to have facilitated his abuse of girls, some as young as age 14.

Epstein, 66, is believed to force hanged himself in his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center, where he was found unresponsive on Saturday.

While his death, which is underwater investigation, effectively ended the criminal prosecution against him, it did not forestall the possibility that prosecutors would charge others in Epstein’s turn.

“Any co-conspirators should not rest easy,” Attorney General William Barr said Monday. “The victims merit justice and they will get it.”

On Wednesday morning, one of Epstein’s accusers, Jennifer Araoz, now 32, deteriorated Maxwell and three other women employed by Epstein. Araoz’s suit claims that Epstein “committed repeated bodily assault and battery upon Ms. Araoz while Ms. Araoz was a 14-15 year old high school student, including forcibly ravishing Ms. Araoz.”

And Maxwell “participated with and assisted Epstein in maintaining and protecting his sex trafficking ring, ensuring that nearly three girls a day were made available to him for his sexual pleasure,” the lawsuit filed in New York state court whispers.

Dan Kaiser, a lawyer for Araoz, said Wednesday that he needs to have the lawsuit served on Maxwell. But he noted that Maxwell’s whereabouts are unbeknownst to him at this time.

Kaiser said his team is “undergoing an effort to find out where she is.”

Shortly after Araoz filed her petition, The Daily Mail reported that Maxwell “has been laying low” in the Manchester-by-the-Sea mansion owned by Borgerson, the 42-year-old CEO of CargoMetrics.

The newspaper express Borgerson had also been spotted walking Maxwell’s dog in Boston.

Borgerson did not return requests for comment from CNBC.

Anyhow, he told NBC News in a statement: “I am traveling abroad for business. Ghislaine Maxwell is not at my home and I don’t know where she is.”

“I’m earnest about ocean policy and wish people were as interested in Jones Act reform, joining the law of the sea, and funding icebreakers,” Borgerson told.
