Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates apologized to his foundation’s staff and team for his connection to convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein , which was revealed in one of the U.S. Department of Justice’s releases of the Epstein files.
In his apology, Gates admitted he had two affairs with Russian women while married to Melinda French Gates, now his ex-wife, and that he spent time with Epstein both in the U.S. and abroad, including flying on a private plane with him. However, he did not admit to committing any crimes. He claimed he never stayed overnight with Epstein, and he never visited the island., which first reported on Gates’ apology. “To be clear, I never spent any time with the victims, the women around him.”According to Gates, he first met Epstein in 2011, three years after Epstein pleaded guilty to soliciting a minor for prostitution. Over the next three years, Gates continued to meet with Epstein, despite French Gates expressing concerns.“Knowing what I know now makes it, you know, a hundred times worse in terms of not only his crimes in the past, but now it’s clear there was ongoing bad behavior,” Gates said during his apology. “To give credit, she was always kind of skeptical about the Epstein thing. “I did have affairs,” Gates continued. “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.”, Epstein sent himself two messages in July 2013 that appear to be drafts styled as a resignation letter from Gates’s then-science adviser, Boris Nikolic. The second email referenced a Gates “marital dispute” and said the author had facilitated “illicit trysts.” One of the emails tried to suggest Nikolic had assisted Gates in securing medication “in order to deal with the consequences of sex with Russian girls.” An organization spokesperson said that Gates “spoke candidly” and “took responsibility for his actions” after he spoke about how this relationship damaged the values and goals of the foundation.‘Costs will keep going up’: WA Policy Center says CO2 tax is driving energy bills higher, offers savings tips Puget Sound residents face 20%-40% hikes in energy bills due to the CO2 tax, raising concerns about affordability and sustainability.A 47-year-old Thurston County man was charged with unlawfully possessing firearms on Tuesday due to previous convictions that prohibit him from possessing them.Trump uses longest-ever State of the Union to try to convince voters that US is ‘winning so much’Man posing as postal worker assaulted Phinney Ridge couple, police say A couple in Phinney Ridge was assaulted by a man impersonating a postal worker, raising safety concerns in the community.Chrystal Ortega's tireless dedication recently earned her the WSECU Community Champions Award and a $1,000 grant to further the mission.When Shawn Tibbitts opened Tibbitts FernHill, he was just trying to survive.
