Ghislaine Maxwell moved house 36 TIMES in a year before FBI arrested her – and Covid face mask helped her stay hidden

GHISLAINE Maxwell moved house up to 36 times in the past year — before the FBI finally pinned down her location a week before her arrest.

The Sun On Sunday can reveal details of the socialite’s life on the run in the US and the raid in which she was captured in New Hampshire.

The heiress, 58, is locked up accused of grooming kids for Prince Andrew’s billionaire paedo pal Jeffrey Epstein.

After placing her in handcuffs, FBI agents crowed that her arrest was sweeter than that of notorious US gangster James “Whitey” Bulger, an insider on the bust said.

They also discovered her British security guard — a former soldier described as “ex-Special Forces”. Mask-wearing in the ­Covid lockdown is said to have helped her avoid detection.

Maxwell’s arrest marked the end of a year’s journey which pals claim began on the West Coast, crisscrossed from Colorado to Wyoming and Idaho, before ending in the East.

A source close to Maxwell said: “Ghislaine has been ­constantly on the move throughout the last year. She would stay in properties for a few days or a week. Security guards were by her side due to death threats.

“She was never running from the Feds. She was ­running from journalists and crazy people who wanted to kill her. It was a serious problem. Her location was on a need-to-know basis.”

Maxwell, who has been charged in relation to US tycoon Epstein’s sex trafficking ring, is set to appear via video-link for a bail hearing in New York on Tuesday.

She is intending to “vigorously” defend herself and is seeking bail on a £4million bond, in return for home confinement, GPS monitoring and passport confiscation.

If the judge opens up the court’s public gallery, it will give people the first opportunity to catch a glimpse of her since last August.

Back then — just days after Epstein killed himself in jail — a picture showed Maxwell eating at an LA burger restaurant. Then she vanished.

But we have pieced together her journey from there to the £800,000 mansion she was arrested at on July 2. Our source claimed she was shuttled from safehouse to safehouse across the West.

One city she is understood to have gone to was Denver, Colorado — home of the law firm she is using.

The insider said: “I would say she moved around three times a month — 36 times. She took flights as well.”

Our source added she spent her days cooking and exercising and read a book by Boris Johnson — plus one on the Epstein scandal itself.

The source said: “She did go out, but not often. Obviously, with the coronavirus, people were wearing masks — it made things easier for her.”

She made her way to New Hampshire in the North East, along with a pet cat and two dogs.

Property records show a firm linked to her bought the secluded, 156-acre mansion, named Tuckedaway, in the rural town of Bradford in December last year.

The pal said she did not move in until after March. But recycling boss Lois Kilnapp said a long-haired Brit, aged around 40, began coming from the home to dump rubbish from December.

This sounds like Wray’s boys covering for the fact that they didn’t want to arrest her, at all, and had the Southern District of New York prosecutor, Berman, on board to keep her from being taken in...well, until Berman was replaced.

Otherwise, why no warrant and why no reward for her capture?

““Moved house” would imply this was written by an Englishter. That’s how them people talk.”

All good and fine, but where the hell did the term ‘boot’ (as in vehicle trunk) come from?

Mansion on 150ac in NH, $1M.
I don’t understand how that happened.
Most suspicious element in the whole story.

“I was wondering if Downton Abby was the culprit.”

Too many people watching too much BBC.
I didn’t think Downton Abby was a big thing here. Evidently I was wrong.

Well now for sure the FBI can honestly use the slogan...”No muff too tuff!”

Leo Dicaprio is 45 and currently dates a 21 year old women. Probably a cover. Leonardo DiCaprio has never dated a woman who was older than 25.

Ricky Gervais’ Monologue - 2020 Golden Globes
He is hinting that Leo is into younger girls and not women.

It’s a British newspaper, so the writer uses that Briticism. :)

Moving 36 times means she qualified for the ATLAS VAN LINES. Frequent mover discount.
