Washington, January 31 (2026): The global spotlight has turned to newly released documents from the US Department of Justice related to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein, with sensational and deeply personal claims about Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates sparking outrage and debate worldwide.

Key Allegations in the Files
According to draft emails from 2013 attributed to Epstein, the documents make several serious claims:

Illicit encounters: Epstein alleges he arranged meetings between Bill Gates and “Russian girls.”

Sexually transmitted disease: The drafts claim Gates contracted a sexually transmitted disease (STD) as a result of these encounters.

Request for medicine: Epstein writes that Gates allegedly asked him for antibiotics, supposedly so he could “surreptitiously” give them to his then-wife Melinda Gates and hide the infection.

Blackmail angle: The tone of the emails suggests Epstein was angry that Gates had distanced himself, with experts saying the messages appear designed to pressure or potentially blackmail Gates after their relationship cooled.

The emails were apparently sent by Epstein to his own account, and there is no clear evidence they were ever sent to Gates.

Bill Gates’ Response
A spokesperson for Bill Gates has categorically rejected the claims.

The statement calls the allegations “absolutely absurd and completely false,” arguing they only show Epstein’s frustration at losing access to Gates and “the lengths he would go to entrap and defame.”

Gates has previously said publicly that meeting Epstein was one of the biggest mistakes of his life.

What Is Known and What Isn’t
Crucially, these claims are based on Epstein’s own draft emails and notes.

So far, there is no independent proof that Gates had an STD or that he requested any medication for himself or Melinda.

Being named in the Epstein files is not, by itself, evidence of criminal conduct or factual confirmation of all written claims, officials have stressed.

Melinda Gates and Divorce Context
Bill and Melinda Gates divorced in 2021 after 27 years of marriage.

Reports and interviews indicate Melinda was deeply uncomfortable with Bill Gates’ association with Epstein and saw it as a major source of strain in their relationship.
