WASHINGTON, DC (THECOUNT) — Bill Gates, the billionaire Microsoft co-founder and philanthropist, is the subject of explosive new allegations contained in recently released Jeffrey Epstein files, according to documents made public by the U.S. Department of Justice on Friday.
The newly disclosed materials include emails attributed to Epstein’s account that allege Gates sought assistance in obtaining antibiotics to secretly administer to his wife in order to conceal sexually transmitted diseases he allegedly contracted during encounters with “Russian girls.” The claims are not accompanied by corroborating evidence and are disputed by Gates’ representatives.

One email dated July 2013 appears to be written by Epstein and sent to himself, allegedly documenting claims on behalf of Boris Nikolic, a former science adviser to Gates. The email references what it describes as a “severe marital dispute” between Bill and Melinda Gates and alleges involvement in activities described as “morally inappropriate” and “ethically unsound.”
The email claims, “From helping Bill to get drugs, in order to deal with consequences of sex with Russian girls, to facilitating his illicit trysts, with married women,” among other allegations. Another draft email attributed to Epstein accuses Gates of attempting to coordinate a “cover up” to protect his public reputation.
In one passage, the email alleges that Gates requested antibiotics that could be “surreptitiously” given to Melinda Gates, and references additional explicit claims. The documents appear to reflect Epstein’s own writings and are not presented as sworn testimony or verified statements.
The same email also alleges Gates requested prescription drugs for non-medical use. In the message attributed to Epstein and written on behalf of Boris Nikolic, the author claims he was asked to obtain Adderall “for bridge tournaments,” describing the request as part of a broader pattern of behavior he characterized as “morally inappropriate” and at times approaching illegality.
The Gates Foundation strongly denied the accusations in a statement provided to Blaze News. “These claims are absolutely absurd and completely false,” a spokesperson said. “The only thing these documents demonstrate is Epstein’s frustration that he did not have an ongoing relationship with Gates and the lengths he would go to entrap and defame.”
Bill Gates has previously acknowledged that his association with Epstein was a “huge mistake.” Gates has said he regrets meeting with Epstein, who died in federal custody in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.
Melinda Gates, who divorced Bill Gates in 2021 after 27 years of marriage, later confirmed in interviews that her former husband’s relationship with Epstein was among the factors that contributed to the split. In a 2022 interview, she described Epstein as “abhorrent” and said meeting him caused her significant distress.
Melinda Gates has also suggested that her ex-husband was unfaithful multiple times during their marriage, though she has not commented directly on the specific allegations raised in the newly released documents.
The Justice Department release included more than 3.5 million pages related to Epstein, along with approximately 180,000 images and 2,000 videos. The materials span years of records connected to Epstein and his network and continue to raise questions about powerful individuals who associated with him.
Officials have not indicated whether any new investigations will result from the document release. No criminal charges have been filed against Gates in connection with the allegations.
