Mega Edition: How The FBI Finally Closed The Net On Ghislaine Maxwell (11/16/25)
The Epstein Chronicles - A podcast by Bobby Capucci
The FBI spent months trying to locate Ghislaine Maxwell after she disappeared from public view following Jeffrey Epstein’s death. Investigators obtained warrants to access data from a cellphone registered to an alias she used, which allowed them to monitor who she was communicating with and identify approximate regions where the phone had connected to cell towers. Through historical cell-site records, GPS metadata, and call-pattern tracking, agents were eventually able to narrow her location to a remote area of New Hampshire, where the phone routinely appeared within the same coverage radius, suggesting she was living in seclusion and limiting digital footprints to avoid detection.Once the FBI had reduced the search field to a one-square-mile area, they sought court authorization to use a more aggressive device — a cell-site simulator, often referred to as a Stingray — which imitates a cellular tower and forces phones nearby to reveal their exact position. After deploying the device, agents pinpointed the precise property Maxwell was using as a hideout. On July 2, 2020, armed with that precision location data, federal agents moved in, encountered Maxwell attempting to evade them inside the house, and placed her under arrest, ending the lengthy federal manhunt.to contact me:[email protected] a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
