Unsealed records from Virginia Giuffre&#8217;s testimonies against Maxwell are frankly too disturbing to relay here, but they make clear that while Maxwell prioritized using their victims to fulfill Epstein&#8217;s daily sexual quotas, she used them for her own perverse pleasure.<\/p>\n<p>So Maxwell knows where all the bodies are buried. We just have to find her.<\/p>\n<p>Maxwell, who moved to Manhattan in 1991 after her father fell off a boat and died, remained in the city&#8217;s social scene for many years even after Epstein&#8217;s publicized case privately secured a non-prosecution deal that\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/epstein-death-britain-alleged-co-conspirator-ghislaine-maxwell-prince-andrew-2019-08-12\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">protected<\/a>\u00a0Maxwell and friends. Even though she had been closely linked to Epstein, she faced even less public blowback than him, remaining a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/pagesix.com\/2014\/03\/21\/socialite-ghislaine-maxwell-dishes-on-icy-travels\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">tabloid<\/a>\u00a0fixture until Giuffre pursued a bold civil lawsuit against Maxwell. The suit was settled in the plaintiff&#8217;s favor. The settlement size remains undisclosed, but Maxwell&#8217;s legal costs lead her to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2019\/07\/15\/us\/ghislaine-maxwell-epstein.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">sell<\/a> her $15 million New York residence.<\/p>\n<p>As of 2017, her lawyers claim she&#8217;s likely in London, but given the threat she poses to Prince Andrew, that seems unlikely. If pressed, no one could provide a more damning testimony to the United States against the accused royal, and it seems unlikely that Maxwell would gamble on her safety by remaining a sitting duck in a city dominated by people with a vested interest in her death.<\/p>\n<p>In an ambiguously sourced report, the Daily Mail\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-7347091\/RICHARD-PENDLEBURY-Robert-Maxwells-daughter-spill-paedophile-Jeffrey-Epsteins-secrets.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">claimed<\/a>\u00a0that Maxwell has already begun cooperating with prosecutors.
