What appears to be drafted from “having sex with Russian girls” while he was married to Melinda, were included in the latest trove.

Epstein also allegedly claimed in the rant that he had been tasked with arranging antibiotics for Gates to secretly give his then-wife.

The allegations have not been verified .

Breaking her silence over the growing scandal, told an NPR podcast: “I’m so happy to be away from all the muck.”

She said the allegations reminded her of “very, very painful” times in her marriage to the tech tycoon.

“Whatever questions remain there of what – I can’t even begin to know all of it – those questions are for those people and for even my ex-husband,” she said.

Adding: “They need to answer to those things, not me.”

The couple of marriage.

Melinda said her ex-husband’s affairs and friendship with Epstein were major factors in their eventual separation.

Referring to, Melinda said: “I’m able to take my own sadness and look at those young girls and say, my God, how did that happen to those girls?

“At least for me, I’ve been able to move on in life, and I hope there’s some justice for those now-women.”

According to the documents, 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.

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 penis.”

From other emails in the files, it appears Epstein may have been drafting a letter to be sent by Boris Nikolic, Gate’s top advisor at the time.

Nikolic resigned from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation around that time.

In that email, Epstein allegedly wrote: “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…”

The message goes on to allege: “From helping Bill to get drugs, in order to deal with consequences of sex with russian girls, to facilitating his illicit trusts, with married women, to being asked to provide adderall fro (sic) bridge touramnts (sic), as I am a medial doctor, but have no presriptions (sic) writing ability.”

It was unclear whether the emails were ever sent to Gates.

The litany of emails released in the files reveal Epstein’s powerful network of political and financial connections across the world, and his particular interest in certain figures.

Emails show Epstein’s persistent attempts to court Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin.

And there is even an audio file where Epstein can be heard coaching someone on how to approach the Russian president, Sky News reports.

In May 2013, Epstein emailed then secretary-general of the Council of Europe, Thorbjørn Jagland, saying: “I know you are going to meet putin [sic] on the 20th, He is desperate to engage western investment in his country…I have his solution.”

He adds: “I recoginize [sic] that there are human rights issues that are at the forefront of your trip howver [sic], if it is helpful to you, I would be happy to meet with him sometime in june [sic] and explain the solution to his top prioirty [sic], I think this would be good for your goals.”

There is no evidence the meetings ever took place.

As well as being referred to in messages, the latest Epstein Files release also includes undated pictures of Epstein and Gates along with women who have been kept anonymous.

The Microsoft co-founder has vehemently denied .

Representatives for Bill Gates told the New York Times Epstein was a “proven, disgruntled liar” and rejected all the allegations.

“The only thing these documents demonstrate is Epstein’s frustration that he did not have an ongoing relationship with Gates and the lengths he would go to entrap and defame,” a spokesperson said.

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

Bill Gates has not been accused of wrongdoing by any of Epstein’s victims and his name being included in the files does not imply criminal activity.
