The British socialite has been loath to leave the $3 million mansion, a source told DailyMail.com amid heightened focus on Epstein's alleged co-conspirators following the convicted pedophile's apparent suicide on Saturday.

'She's become a real homebody, rarely ventures out. She's the antithesis of the woman who traveled extensively and partied constantly with Epstein,' said a source familiar with Maxwell's new life.

Little was known of Maxwell's whereabouts since she was last seen publicly three years ago as a multitude of reports claimed she had been living abroad, perhaps in London.

Her former townhouse on the Upper East Side of Manhattan was sold for $15 million in 2016, by a company with the same address as Epstein's New York office.

The spotlight has now swung to Maxwell, and other alleged co-conspirators of Epstein, following the convicted pedophile's apparent suicide in a Manhattan jail cell on Saturday.

Attorney General Bill Barr issued a stark warning to Epstein's cronies on Monday and made clear that federal investigators were coming for them.

'Let me assure you that this case will continue on against anyone who was complicit with Epstein. Any co-conspirators should not rest easy,' Barr said. 'The victims deserve justice and they will get it.'

Epstein, 66, was accused of arranging for girls, some as young as 14, to perform nude 'massages' and other sex acts, and of paying some of those girls to recruit others, between 2002 and 2005.

Epstein had employees who helped bring him girls, prosecutors have said, though none have been criminally charged.

Maxwell, 57, described as the 'madam of the house' by a former housekeeper at Epstein's mansion in Palm Beach, Florida, has strenuously denied any wrongdoing but reports now suggest she may be ready to co-operate with the authorities.

However, following Epstein's death, legal sources have said that many of those deals could now be off the table.

Former federal prosecutor, Jacob S. Frenkel, told the AP: 'Those who had leverage as potential cooperators in the case now find themselves as the primary targets.

'They no longer have anyone against whom to cooperate.'

Maxwell's lawyer, Jeff Pagliuca, has not responded to requests for an interview with Maxwell by DailyMail.com.

Borgerson was pictured last month running errands in the affluent community of Manchester-by-the-Sea, a half-hour drive from Boston. Borgerson declined to comment on his relationship with Maxwell when contacted by DailyMailTV

Borgerson was seen by DailyMail.com in July running errands in the affluent community of Manchester-by-the-Sea, a half-hour drive from Boston.

Later, he was seen walking Maxwell's dog on Boston Common near his apartment where he lives during the week while running his company, Cargometrics, an investment management firm that specializes in analyzing data on global shipping.

The former Coast Guard officer, is also a member of the Council on Foreign Relations. He was married and is believed to have two children.

Borgenson did not respond to DailyMail.com's request for comment when first contacted, but following publication he claimed: 'I'm traveling abroad for business. Ghislaine Maxwell is not at my home and I don't know where she is.'

Maxwell has not been seen publicly in around three years since she faded from the New York social scene she once reveled in with Epstein.

The British aristocrat facilitated Epstein's entry to the rarefied worlds of royalty, politics and celebrity, cementing his friendships with Prince Andrew, Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Woody Allen, to name a few.

Maxwell is the youngest child of the late newspaper magnate Robert Maxwell. She attended the boarding school Marlborough College in Wiltshire, England, a favorite of the British elite, and went on to study at Oxford University.

In her twenties, she was a well-known face on London's social scene and founded the Kit Kat Club, an alternative to the old-school-tie network for high-powered women.

She worked for her father's newspaper, The European, and as the director of Oxford United Football Club while her father was owner.

Maxwell and Epstein partied with Donald Trump and Melania at Mar-A-Lago (pictured in 2000) and threw lavish dinners at Epstein's Upper East Side townhouse, attended by Woody Allen, Katie Couric, Chelsea Handler, David Blaine and Google co-founder Sergey Brin, among others

In 1991, Robert Maxwell drowned in mysterious circumstances after falling off his yacht named the Lady Ghislaine.

It emerged that his newspaper empire was built on the proceeds of epic criminality, which had seen him defraud its pension fund of almost half a billion pounds.

Vilified in the UK, where Robert Maxwell's victims were angered by the lavish lifestyle his family had enjoyed at their expense, his youngest daughter relocated to New York, where she took up residence in a small apartment, and set about re-inventing herself.

In the early Nineties, she took up with Epstein, a Gatsby-like financial whiz, who reportedly only managed the money of clients who could invest $1 billion. His sole publicly-named client is Les Wexner, the owner of L Brands which includes Victoria's Secret and Bath & Body Works.

'Ghislaine floated in and out of the house with the keys, and even though Jeffrey told me they didn't have a sexual relationship, she'd drop under her breath that she was sleeping in his bed from time to time' one Epstein ex-girlfriend told Vanity Fair this week.

The pair partied with Donald Trump and Melania at Mar-A-Lago and threw lavish dinners at Epstein's Upper East Side townhouse, attended by Woody Allen, Katie Couric, Chelsea Handler, David Blaine and Google co-founder Sergey Brin, among others.

The jet-setting financier also hobnobbed with Trump allies Wilbur Ross, Steve Mnuchin and Rudy Giuliani at a Hamptons film screening in 2010, just two months after his release from prison in Florida.

It was revealed on Monday that Epstein bragged last year to a New York Times columnist about having 'dirt' on his rich and powerful associates.

'The overriding impression I took away from our roughly 90-minute conversation was that Mr Epstein knew an astonishing number of rich, famous and powerful people, and had photos to prove it,' Times staffer James B. Stewart wrote.

'He also claimed to know a great deal about these people, some of it potentially damaging or embarrassing, including details about their supposed sexual proclivities and recreational drug use.'

In 2008, Epstein was offered a secret deal to avoid federal prosecution and pleaded guilty to state charges of soliciting an underage girl for sex.

As part of that deal, federal prosecutors agreed not to charge 'any potential co-conspirators of Epstein'.

He served 13 months in county jail in Palm Beach, Florida and registered as a sex offender. During his sentence, he was allowed to work from his office most days.

The deal was cut by Alex Acosta, then U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Florida. He resigned from his current role as Trump's Secretary of Labor in the fallout from the Epstein case.

On July 6, FBI investigators broke down the doors of Epstein's $77 million New York home after he was arrested on his private jet at Teterboro Airport in New Jersey following a flight from Paris.

A search of Epstein's home turned up hundreds of pictures of nude women, some of them minors, along with cash, diamonds, valuable art and an expired Austrian passport with Epstein's face but someone else's name, claiming Saudi Arabia as place of residence, according Geoffrey Berman, U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York.

Maxwell is alleged to be one of the main players in a network of recruiters and enablers who provided Epstein with those underage girls to sexually abuse.

In July, Maxwell filed a request with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit asking them to reconsider a decision made earlier in the month to unseal 2,000 pages connected to a civil defamation lawsuit filed against her by Virginia Giuffre, who has accused Epstein of keeping her as a sex slave when she was a teenager.

According to the filing, Maxwell's justification for keeping the documents sealed was the media's 'furious feeding frenzy' over the Epstein case.

Despite Maxwell's protests, the federal appeals court in Manhattan rejected her bid to keep them under seal and released some 2,000 pages of documents related to Giuffre's defamation suit on Friday.

In the newly-released documents, Giuffre claimed in a May 3, 2016, deposition that Maxwell directed her to have sex with people including former New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson, former U.S. Senator George Mitchell, modeling agent Jean Luc Brunel and financier Glenn Dubin.

It was not clear from the deposition transcript included in the court documents how old Giuffre was at the time of the alleged direction. The transcript does not indicate whether Giuffre actually engaged in sex with the four men.

None of the four men has been criminally charged in connection with Epstein.

Richardson, Mitchell and Dubin, or their respective representatives, all told Reuters that the various allegations against them were false. A lawyer for Brunel did not respond to a phone call and email seeking comment.

The name of President Trump, who was once a friend of Epstein, appears in a November 14, 2016, deposition of Giuffre, in which she said Trump and Epstein had been good friends.

In response to a question about how she knew whom Trump had sex with, Giuffre said she 'didn't physically see him have sex with any of the girls'.

Giuffre, now 35, alleges she was recruited by Maxwell to have sex with rich and powerful men in 2000 while, aged 16, she was working as a towel girl at Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort.

Maxwell called the claims 'entirely false' and the case never went to trial.

Epstein hanged himself in his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in lower Manhattan on Saturday just 24 hours after the 2,000 pages were unsealed.

The nature and timing of Epstein's death has prompted widespread speculation and is now the subject of a federal investigation.

It has emerged that guards, who were supposed to be checking on Epstein every 30 minutes, had not looked in on him in hours. There are also questions as to why Epstein's cellmate had been moved, leaving him alone.

Epstein had been on 24-hour watch after he was hospitalized following an unsuccessful suicide attempt two weeks ago. The decision to remove Epstein from suicide watch is also being investigated.

Epstein had pleaded not guilty to federal charges of underage sex and sex trafficking of dozens of girls between 2002 and 2005. He faced 45 years in jail if convicted.

The 66-year-old was denied bail due to his vast resources and being deemed a flight risk.

Prosecutors told the court that Epstein had recently sent $350,000 to two people, including a former employee, and there were concerns he could attempt to influence witnesses in the case.

Some of Epstein's other accusers say that they were groomed by Maxwell and ordered to have sex with other men.

One alleged victim, Sarah Ransome, filed a lawsuit in 2017, where she described Maxwell as the 'highest-ranking employee' of Epstein's alleged sex-trafficking ring.

Maxwell allegedly trained recruiters, developed plans and concealed activity from law enforcement, according to court documents.

Jennifer Araoz came forward earlier this month and alleged that Epstein had raped her when she was 15. She claimed that in 2001, she was approached outside her Manhattan school by a friendly brunette woman in her twenties and told that Epstein wanted to meet her. She was 14 at the time.

'I feel like it was really well thought-out to really make me feel as comfortable as possible, to almost keep me coming back,' Araoz said in an interview on the Today show.

Araoz is one of the first alleged victims to file a lawsuit against his estate today.

In addition to Epstein's estate, Araoz is suing Maxwell and three female members of his household staff.

Araoz officially filed the lawsuit on Wednesday when New York's new Child Victims Act came into effect, which opens a one-year window for people to file lawsuits over alleged sexual abuse regardless of how long ago it occurred.

The 32-year-old's lawsuit is among the first of an expected wave of suits against Epstein following his apparent suicide.
