Epstein files: Bill Gates caught STD from Russian girls; asked for antibiotics to secretly give to his ex-wife Melinda

In newly released documents of Epstein files, an email caught everyone's attention as it mentioned Microsoft founder Bill Gates, who got sexually transmitted disease from “Russian girls.”

Screenshots of alleged 2013 self-emails attributed to Jeffrey Epstein claimed Bill Gates contracted a sexually transmitted disease from “Russian girls” and asked for antibiotics to secretly give to his then-wife, Melinda.


The allegations were not verified and were heavily disputed by context and prior denials from Gates. None of the claims were substantiated.

The claims appeared in what were described as screenshots of self-emails written by Epstein, among a new tranche of hundreds of thousands of documents released by the DOJ on Friday.

According to the documents released Friday by the Department of Justice, Epstein wrote a lengthy message to himself on July 18, 2013, lashing out at Gates for ending their relationship and alleging efforts to cover up personal matters, the US Sun reported.

In one passage, Epstein allegedly wrote: “TO add insult to the injury you them (sic) implore me to please delete the emails regarding your std, your request that I provide you antibiotics that you can surreptitiously give to Melinda and the description of your *****.”

Earlier in the same message, Epstein said he had been “dismayed beyond comprehension” by Gates’s decision to “disregard our friendship developed over the last six years.”

In that email, Epstein allegedly wrote: “I have been caught up in a severe marital dispute between Melinda and Bill…”

He continued: “In my role as his right hand man I have been asked and wrongly acquiesced into participating in things that have ranged from the morally inappropriate, to the ethically unsound and have been repeatedly asked to do thing (sic) that get near and potentially over the line into the illegal…”

Gates previously said he regretted his association with Epstein, who died in a New York City jail in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex-trafficking charges, and long denied any wrongdoing.

In the last released documents, multiple undated images showing Epstein and Gates together in various locations were present. In one photograph, Gates was seen smiling next to a woman whose face was redacted.

Gates and Melinda were married from 1994 to 2021. Melinda said Gates’s affairs and his relationship with Epstein were factors in their divorce, without providing further detail. She reportedly hired divorce lawyers in 2019 after concerns over Gates’s alleged dealings with Epstein, according to The Wall Street Journal.

Meanwhile, Bill Gates, through his philanthropic foundation, has issued a strongly worded denial calling the information "absurd and completely false."
