Ghislaine Maxwell, who is closely linked to Jeffrey Epstein is in possession of a secret stash of his pedophile sex tapes, a former friend told Daily Mail.
Maxwell was captured at her hiding place in Bradford, New Hampshire, U.S. last week, and was charged with 6 federal crimes, which include sex trafficking, enticement of minors, and perjury.
Known as Epstein’s accomplice and closest ally by his victims, Maxwell has been accused of providing the multi-millionaire with teenage girls. Epstein has reportedly kept evidence of his monstrous sex acts with his underaged victims.
Following Epstein’s arrest last summer, authorities found thousands of pornographic pictures of minors and a safe filled with CD’s labeled “nude girls, police said.
Recently, one of Maxwell’s most trusted former friends has claimed that she is in possession of copies of all of his tapes and will use them as a guarantee to save herself.
“Ghislaine has always been as cunning as they come. She wasn’t going to be with Epstein all those years and not have some insurance,” the former friend explained.
“The secret stash of sex tapes I believe Ghislaine has squirrelled away could end up being her get-out-of-jail card if the authorities are willing to trade. She has copies of everything Epstein had. They could implicate some twisted movers and shakers.”
The person added:
“If Ghislaine goes down, she’s going to take the whole damn lot of them with her.”
They went on saying:
“Not only did Epstein like to capture himself with underage girls on camera – he wanted to make sure he had something to hold over the rich and powerful men who took advantage of his sick largesse.
“I’ll bet anything that once it comes out that Ghislaine has those tapes these men will be quaking in their Italian leather boots.
“Ghislaine made sure that she socked away thumb drives of it all. She knows where all the bodies are buried and she’ll use whatever she had to save her own a**.”

One day after Epstein’s apparent suicide last year, the New York Times released an interview reporter James B. Stewart had with Epstein back in 2018.
In the interview, Epstein revealed that he had hidden dirt on his famous house guests.
“Some of it potentially damaging or embarrassing, including details about their supposed sexual proclivities and recreational drug use,” the pedophile said at the time.
Maxwell, who is now being held without bail in New York, is set to make a court appearance on Friday.
An indictment released to the public a week ago accused her of facilitating Epstein’s crimes by helping him find, groom, and take advantage of girls as young as 14. She may also have participated in the abuse herself, according to recent reports, but has denied all allegations.
Maxwell was close with former U.S. President Bill Clinton, who flew a number of times with Epstein’s famous Lolita Express, and she even attended the wedding of his daughter Chelsea back in 2010.
However, one of Maxwell’s best friends is Prince Andre of the United Kingdom, who has been pictured with her along with Virginia Roberts Giueffa, who has accused him of sexually assaulting her.
Andrew has denied any involvement.

Epstein and Maxwell’s sex ring reportedly catered to many rich and powerful men.
In an attempt to get a softer prison sentence, she may soon reveal their names to investigators and testify against them.
“I’m sure that Ghislaine’s attorneys will try everything. They will try to make a deal where, perhaps, she speaks out about a bigger name to get reduced charges for herself,” said Lisa Bloom, the attorney defending one of Epstein’s victims.
“But she herself is a big name. With Jeffrey Epstein’s passing a year ago, she is one of the biggest names of people who were involved in this scheme.”
Spencer Kuvin, who defends six of Epstein’s victims, said his clients hoped Maxwell’s arrest was “just the beginning”.
“On behalf of the victims, we are very happy that the US Attorney’s office has decided to move forward on this arrest, which is hopefully just the beginning. We’re hopeful that there will continue to be additional arrests with respect to other co-conspirators,” Kuvin said.
“The victims are very sceptical because there have been arrests in the past and the US government has not followed through.”
