Ex-Microsoft boss accused of sending birthday letter to Epstein

Former Microsoft boss Nathan Myhrvold is among the ‘friends’ who contributed to pedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein’s birthday book, it has been claimed.

The letter allegedly written by Myhrvold was accompanied by graphic photographs of sex acts and engorged animal genitalia.

The former Microsoft Chief Technology Officer allegedly snapped the photographs during a trip to Africa, the letter stated.

The letter was included in a 238-page book marking the financier’s 50th birthday in 2003. The book was released by Congress last month, but details of the disgusting message were unearthed Friday by The Seattle Times.

Myhrvold’s note hailed Epstein for being his so-called lifestyle advisor.

‘A few years ago somebody at a party asked me ‘Does Jeffrey Epstein manage your money?” he reportedly penned. ‘I replied ‘No, but he advises me on lifestyle’. The guys eyes bugged out of his head and he said ‘REALLY?”

The multimillionaire has also been named as a passenger on Epstein’s private jet, the Lolita Express, flight logs from the 1990s revealed.

Myhrvold has claimed he and Epstein were only ‘passing acquaintances’ and that he regrets knowing him. He has not acknowledged the birthday images he is accused of sending Epstein.

Myhrvold flew on Esptein’s plane twice, according to records filed in Virginia Guiffre’s 2015 defamation suit against Ghislaine Maxwell.

He flew with Epstein, Maxwell and two others from Fort Knox, Kentucky to Teterboro, New Jersey on December 9, 1996.

He also flew on the jet from Newark to Titusville, Florida on January 11, 1997. 

Epstein, his former lawyer Alan Dershowitz, Norweigan heiress Celina Midelfart and another passenger were also on that flight.

Myhrvold began working at Microsoft in 1986 after the firm purchased his start-up. He eventually became the software company’s first chief technology officer.

Microsoft founder Bill Gates’s own reputation has been badly sullied by his close association with Epstein. 

Gates says he regrets their friendship and there is no suggestion of impropriety on his part. But Gates’s ex-wife Melinda says the friendship helped destroy the couple’s 27 year marriage. 

Myhrvold’s connections to Epstein have come to light just days after Giuffre’s memoir was published post-humorous.

Giuffre was recruited into Epstein’s alleged sex-trafficking network when she was a 17-year-old minor while working at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago club in 2000, saying in the book she feared she would ‘die a sex slave.’

She claimed she was approached there by Maxwell, who was later jailed in 2022 for helping Epstein sexually abuse girls.

Trump appeared to be on good terms with Epstein during this time, praising him as a ‘terrific guy’ in a 2002 New York Magazine profile.

In her book, Giuffre recounts being introduced to Trump by her father, with the property developer asking her ‘do you babysit at all.’

The so-called Epstein files have been the focal point of the controversy engulfing the second presidency of Trump, who was a longtime friend of Epstein.

In 2019 Epstein took his own life while in prison awaiting trial on sex-trafficking charges.
