Bill Gates met with Jeffrey Epstein 30 times between 2011 and 2014 to set up a public health donor-advised fund, despite knowing of Epstein’s prior conviction for soliciting underage sex — and despite internal warnings from foundation staff. Meetings even occurred at Epstein’s Manhattan townhouse, though no illegal activity was found. Gates severed ties in 2014 after the fund collapsed, later calling it a “grave error in judgment” and expressing regret — a connection his ex-wife Melinda Gates tied to their divorce. A WilmerHale review, based on 50+ interviews but no personal communications, found no evidence of wrongdoing by Gates, who denies any knowledge of abuse. The Gates Foundation has since strengthened vetting and risk protocols, with leadership reaffirming their commitment to integrity, transparency, and accountability.
