Accused Jeffrey Epstein procuress Ghislaine Maxwell will use her secret stockpile of the late pedophile’s sex tapes as an insurance policy to save herself from federal charges, her friend said in a new report.
The former socialite, who was arrested in New Hampshire last week, was moved Monday to a Brooklyn lockup to await trial on four counts of sex-trafficking minors and two counts of perjury for allegedly acting as Epstein’s fixer.
Christopher Mason, a TV host and journalist who has known Maxwell since the 1980s, has said he was told that Epstein rigged his multiple homes with cameras and kept surveillance tapes of everyone and everything that went on in them.
Mason said she has access to the potentially compromising tapes.

“The general opinion of her at Merrimack was that she’s a snooty rich b—h. Nobody wanted anything to do with her,” the insider said.
