The Jeffrey Epstein case
Details: Epstein tried to blackmail Bill Gates
Convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein tried to extort money from Microsoft founder Bill Gates in exchange for not leaking details about Gates' love affair with Russian bridge player Mila Antonova, sources told the Wall Street Journal.
Birdge fan Bill Gates is said to have met the then 20-year-old Antonova in 2010 and started an affair with her. The WSJ writes that Epstein met her three years later and then offered to pay for her education.
In 2017, Jeffrey Epstein is said to have emailed Bill Gates and tried to demand money from him in order not to leak details about Gates and Antonova's relationship. A Gates spokesperson says the blackmail attempt was unsuccessful.
There has long been speculation as to what kind of relationship Gates and Epstein had. The WSJ writes that the information shows how Epstein worked when he turned on billionaires, politicians and royalty.
