Overview
- The House Oversight Committee released Bill Gates’s June closed‑door transcript on Wednesday, making his sworn denials and explanations public as part of its review of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell materials.
- Gates told investigators he never had a sexually transmitted infection, never described his genitals to Dr. Boris Nikolic, and never secretly gave medication to anyone, directly rejecting graphic allegations found in Epstein‑attributed draft notes.
- He said he never witnessed Epstein commit sexual crimes and denied visiting Epstein properties named in probes, but acknowledged he may have been in the presence of some victims when he saw Epstein employees on a plane.
- Gates repeated that his meetings with Epstein were tied to prospective philanthropy, called the relationship a mistake, and said Epstein collected a mix of true and false negative material about him in self‑authored draft emails.
- The committee’s publication does not allege criminal conduct by Gates and the congressional probe continues as investigators seek to assess the credibility of Epstein’s files and whether federal authorities properly handled evidence and contacts.
