Bill Gates Says He Didn’t Witness Crimes but May Have Been in Presence of Epstein Victims

Gates said Epstein may have used knowledge of his affairs to pressure him, and the committee released a transcript of nearly six hours of testimony.

  • Bill Gates testified that he never directly interacted with Jeffrey Epstein's victims but admitted he may have been in their presence during some meetings and saw Epstein's female employees on his plane.
  • Gates described his three-year relationship with Epstein as strictly professional and denied witnessing or participating in any sexual misconduct.
  • Gates acknowledged that Epstein tried to pressure him by using personal information about Gates's extramarital affairs, information shared by an employee, Dr. Boris Nikolic.
  • Gates met Epstein in 2011, aware of Epstein's prior sexual crime conviction, but pursued a professional relationship because Epstein claimed he could help raise large funds for global health projects.
