The US Justice Department on Friday released a new batch of documents linked to the Jeffrey Epstein investigation. The files include draft emails attributed to Epstein that make allegations involving Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates. The emails claim Gates sought help after sexual encounters and tried to prevent the matter from reaching his then wife, Melinda French Gates. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said over three million pages, along with videos and images, were released after review to protect victims. The documents also revive earlier reports of Epstein pressuring Gates over a charity fund. Gates’ spokesperson denied all allegations, calling them false. Epstein died in jail in 2019. (PC: NDTV)
