Bill Gates has consistently framed his association with Jeffrey Epstein as a “huge mistake,” claiming he naively believed the convicted sex offender could help advance global health philanthropy—an aspiration that never materialized. In interviews with The Wall Street Journal, Gates described his behavior as “foolish,” emphasized that he had no personal or business relationship with Epstein, and c...

Mark Epstein, Jeffrey’s younger brother, responded to the DOJ’s announcement that it is reaching out to Ghislaine Maxwell by doubling down on his longtime suspicion that his brother’s official death was a homicide, not a suicide.

Mark Epstein, Jeffrey Epstein’s younger brother, has repeatedly questioned the official conclusion that Jeffrey died by suicide at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan on August 10, 2019.

The downfall of Jes Staley traces back to his long-running professional and personal relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, which resurfaced publicly years after Epstein’s crimes became widely known.

Edward Bramson, through his investment fund Sherborne Investors, became a prominent activist shareholder in Barclays starting in 2018, with a stated goal of pushing the bank to scale back its investment banking arm and refocus on more stable retail operations and shareholder returns.

Jeffrey Epstein had extensive ties to the academic community. His reach spanned across the country when it came to donating to professors. From the deserts of Arizona to the Pacific Coast and everywhere in between, proffesors and universities accepted his patronage. None of these institutions had the relationship with Epstein that Harvard had however. Today we take a look at that relationship. To...

Ghislaine Maxwell was, in many ways, exactly the kind of partner Jeffrey Epstein needed to make his predatory operation function. Epstein had money, properties and access, but Maxwell brought something different: social legitimacy, organization and the ability to make young women and girls feel that what was happening around Epstein was normal. Prosecutors and survivors described her as someone wh...

Seth Lloyd, an MIT professor and quantum computing specialist, came under fire for his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein after it emerged that he accepted both direct and indirect funding from Epstein—even after Epstein’s 2008 conviction for soliciting a minor.

In a September 2021 interview with PBS NewsHour’s Judy Woodruff, Bill Gates was pressed about his meetings with Jeffrey Epstein, which had begun after Epstein was already a convicted sex offender.

Gate...

Bill Gates has repeatedly tried to contain the damage from his association with Jeffrey Epstein by apologizing for the relationship and framing it as a serious error in judgment.

In...

The backyard, bareknuckle brawl between the USVI and JP Morgan continues to rage inside of the courtroom, with both sides dropping bombs on each other with every filing, each looking to paint the other as the bad guy.
