It wasn't just Bill Gates. Epstein had ties to several Microsoft executives.

Bill Gates has been under scrutiny since the Justice Department released files that put his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein on display.  ….. But these files also show that Epstein’s connections within the company Gates co-founded, Microsoft, were more widespread than previously known.  Epstein built relationships with several of Microsoft’s top executives. He traded gifts and advice with them, and even invited some to his island.  And, through these big players, Epstein also got access to the inner workings of the company.  Guests:  Karen Weise, a technology correspondent for The New York Times who’s based in Seattle  Related links: How Jeffrey Epstein Ingratiated Himself With Top Microsoft Executives - The New York Times Records show deeper ties between Epstein, ex-Microsoft exec Myhrvold | The Seattle Times Thank you to the supporters of KUOW, you help make this show possible!
