Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates said he regrets “every minute” he spent with late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, denying allegations contained in draft emails released by US authorities last week, Euronews<\/a> writes.<\/p>\n

“Every minute I spent with him, I regret, and I apologize,” Gates told 9News Australia in an interview broadcast Wednesday.<\/p>\n

After the US Justice Department released nearly 3 million new pages of Epstein-related documents last week, unsent draft emails surfaced making claims about Gates.<\/p>\n

“Apparently, Jeffrey wrote an email to himself. That email was never sent. The email is false,” Gates said. “I don’t know what his thinking was there. Was he trying to attack me in some way?”<\/p>\n

In one of the unsent letters written in 2013, Epstein claimed that Gates had extramarital affairs and that he had helped Gates obtain drugs.<\/p>\n

Gates’s ex-wife, Melinda French Gates, commenting<\/a> on her former husband’s ties to Epstein, said the revelations bring back memories of “painful times” in her marriage.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
