According to the article, Gates visited Epstein in Epstein's apartment several times. So that doesn't really square with Gate's being an unwilling participant. It's a weird story. It's hard to imagine Gates, whose foundation is the largest charitable organization in the world, really needed Epsteins advice on setting up charitable funds, which seems to be the official line. And Gates certainly wouldn't need help networking or coming up with $$.
