Tech billionaire Bill Gates will appear before the House panel investigating disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein on June 10, said a person familiar with the plans.
The Microsoft co-founder was among a group of prominent figures with ties to Epstein that House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer requested appear for transcribed interviews.
Gates has called his relationship with Epstein a “huge mistake” and has denied wrongdoing. A spokesperson for Gates said the billionaire never witnessed or participated in any of Epstein’s illegal activity but Gates is looking forward to answering the committee’s questions.
