Slimeball Epstein tried to blackmail Bill Gates over fling with young beauty

SEX fiend Jeffrey Epstein's twisted web of evil has entangled billionaire Bill Gates and America's biggest bank, which an investigator charges "turned a blind eye" to enable the financier's deplorable human trafficking operations!

Explosive new documents reveal the predatory pervert tried to blackmail Microsoft mogul Gates over much younger Russian beauty Mila Antonova, threatening to expose a suspected extramarital affair if the tech tycoon didn't kick in millions to an Epstein fund linked to JPMorgan Chase!

In a damning email, Epstein insinuated he'd bare Gates' relationship with Antonova if he didn't reimburse him for funding her education at a software coding school - a veiled threat signaling the convicted pedophile knew all about their intimate friendship.

Sources claim Epstein was livid Gates refused to back a charity fund he was launching through JPMorgan Chase in a desperate attempt to whitewash his reputation after he was nailed for having sex with a 14-year-old girl in Florida.

Although Gates didn't bow to Epstein's attempted extortion, the computer genius paid a horrible price for his association with the kinkster, who died in 2019 under suspicious circumstances in a New York City jail while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.

In 2021, Bill went through a blistering divorce from his wife of 27 years, Melinda French Gates, who walked away with half his $130 billion fortune after expressing profound outrage over his friendship with Epstein.

Although a spokesperson for Gates, 67, insists the Microsoft co-founder met with Epstein "solely for philanthropic purposes," he now concedes the creep "tried unsuccessfully to leverage a past relationship to threaten him."

Epstein's fledgling charity, which never got off the ground, was to be created in partnership with his banker, JPMorgan Chase.
