My theory is lot of tech people knew Epstein due to his interest in transhumanism and cryonics. Melinda is pretty pissed on Bill due to his affair and using this to taint his image. I am not saying Bill is good guy, there is simply no evidence but there the accuser has motivation to taint Bill's image.

There is extensive evidence that Bill Gates had a close relationship with a serial criminal pedophile, sex trafficker, and rapist. It’s all pretty out in public at this point.

How would your wife feel if that statement could be made about you?

The publication of this article has been reported as the event that precipitated the divorce filing.

Bill's Guilty. Considering Bill's intellect there can be no benefit of doubt. Thanks for the citation.

I was already known that Epstein had a criminal conviction for involvement in underage prostitution from 2008.

So anyone associating with him after 2008 should not have the benefit of doubt.

I can fully understand why someone like Melinda did not approve of her husband having any sort of relationship with Epstein.

Is there any evidence of Bill continuing his friendship with Epstein post 2008 after criminal conviction?
