Bill Gates Apologizes For Ties With Jeffrey Epstein, Admits To Having Two Affairs With Russian Women

The cat is out of the bag.

Billionaire Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has apologized for his ties to Jeffrey Epstein.

Gates directed the apology to employees at the Gates Foundation.

In his apology, he also admitted to having two affairs with Russian women while he was married to his now ex-wife, Melinda Gates.

The New York Post provided a more in-depth report on Gates’ apology and affairs:

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has admitted he had two affairs with Russian women while married to his now-ex-wife, Melinda French Gates, and issued a groveling apology for his links with convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

Gates, 70, told staffers at his foundation on Tuesday that he flew on a private plane with the disgraced financier and spent time with him in the US and abroad, but didn’t participate in any crime, according to the Wall Street Journal.

“I did nothing illicit. I saw nothing illicit,” Gates said in the town hall meeting. “To be clear, I never spent any time with the victims, the women around him.”

Gates first met Epstein in 2011, which was after the financier’s Florida conviction for procuring a child for prostitution, and continued to socialize with him — seemingly ignoring concerns raised by French Gates.

The billionaire has always denied wrongdoing over his Epstein links, but came clean about alleged affairs during his time with French Gates, who filed for divorce in 2021, ending their 27-year marriage.

“I did have affairs, one with a Russian bridge player who met me at bridge events, and one with a Russian nuclear physicist who I met through business activities,” he told staffers.

Here’s Melinda speaking about Bill’s ties with Epstein:

In 2014, an engineer for Gates was arrested at his estate for possessing child exploitation materials:

KOMO provided more details on the man’s arrest at Gates’ estate:

A Seattle man employed as an engineer at Bill and Melinda Gates’ home is now accused of amassing a 6,000-image child pornography collection and trading child rape photos by Gmail.

King County prosecutors say Rick Allen Jones admitted he’d been collecting child rape videos and photos for a decade before police intervened in March. According to police, Jones, 51, was first contacted by police at the Microsoft founder’s estate while working for the billionaire couple.

Jones drew investigators’ attention in late 2013 after sharing a suspicious photo through Google’s email service. According to charging papers, the photo captured the sexual exploitation of two pre-teen boys.

Investigators tracked the image to Jones’ Ballard apartment, which they searched on March 20, a Seattle Police Department detective said in court papers. Jones was not there at the time, but investigators learned he was likely working at the Medina home.

Two detectives drove to the sprawling, lakefront estate and met Jones in the estate security office, according to charging papers. They then interviewed him in a parked SUV.

Having been read his rights, Jones claimed he shared child pornography online just once but then admitted he’d been collecting it for years, the Seattle detective said in charging papers.
