Melinda French Gates says new Epstein file allegations revive painful memories, urges accountability for those involved, including Bill Gates, while emphasizing she has moved on and focuses on victims globally.

While the documents reveal disturbing behaviour, questionable judgment, and close contact with influential individuals even after Epstein’s 2008 conviction, the files themselves do not automatically establish criminal guilt for those named.

Gates’ representatives have firmly denied the allegations contained in the documents, dismissing them as baseless and fabricated. In a statement, a spokesperson for Gates said the claims were “absolutely absurd and completely false,” arguing that the emails reflect Epstein’s resentment over being shut out of Gates’ life rather than any factual account.

The claims are drawn from hundreds of thousands of documents released online by the DOJ, part of a larger disclosure encompassing over three million pages of records, 2,000 videos, and 180,000 images connected to Epstein and his network of high-profile contacts.
