NEW DELHI,31 Jan 2026 : The US Justice Department on Friday released a large batch of files related to its investigation into financier Jeffrey Epstein, reviving claims involving Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, including allegations concerning an alleged sexually transmitted disease.
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said the department was releasing more than three million pages of documents, as well as over 2,000 videos and 180,000 images. He said the files, posted on the department’s website, include some of the several million pages that officials said were withheld from an initial release in December.
Blanche said Friday’s release “marks the end of a very comprehensive document identification and review process to ensure transparency to the American people.” He blamed the delay on the need to protect the identities of more than 1,000 alleged victims.
Emails Attributed To Epstein Target Gates
Among the newly released documents are draft emails that appear to have been written by Epstein and focus on Gates. The emails include claims accusing Gates of attempting to conceal an STD from his then-wife, Melinda French Gates, following alleged sexual encounters with women described as “Russian girls.”
