Bill Gates' Former Science Adviser Asked Epstein for 'Nude or Semi Nude' Island Photos
DOJ emails show Boris Nikolic requesting 'hot girls' photos from Epstein's island, discussing 'young hot models,' and receiving a proposal for a $10 million buyout-linked loan.
View source documentWhat The Current Corpus Shows
In the currently processed DOJ File Transparency Act index, a power-filter search returns at least 4,789 records tied to the name Boris Nikolic [1]. That does not mean every file is equally probative. Many are brief email fragments, logistical notes, or metadata-heavy captures. But the higher-scoring set contains recurring direct correspondence with Jeffrey Epstein that includes explicit sexualized requests, island logistics, and financial proposals [2][3][6].
The strongest records are plain text, not inference. In one February 2013 email, Nikolic asks Epstein to send island and house photos and to include images of "two of hot girls (preferably nude or semi nude)" [2]. In a January 2011 message, Nikolic writes that "middle age business men are NOT my cup of tea. I want young hot models," then references "russian hookers(grls)" [3]. In another exchange, he asks for "girl on girl action pics of Melanie" [4].
These are documentary facts from the government's own files. They establish direct communication and the language used in that communication. They do not, by themselves, resolve every legal question about who appears in each message or what happened offline. But the record does show that Nikolic and Epstein were exchanging explicit requests and personal logistics years after Epstein's 2008 conviction. [2][3][4]
Boris Nikolic: Key Facts In The Current Record
At least 4,789 records in the processed DOJ FTA index [1]
Request for photos of 'hot girls (preferably nude or semi nude)' [2]
Message references 'young hot models' and 'russian hookers(grls)' [3]
Email proposes a $10 million loan tied to a release of future investment interests [6]
The Email Record: Explicit Requests And Repeated Contact
The February 10, 2013 email is concise and difficult to misread. Nikolic asks Epstein for pictures of the island and house, then adds: "Include also a picture of two of hot girls (preferably nude or semi nude) at the island ;)" [2]. The file is a one-page capture with sender, timestamp, and subject line preserved [2].
Two other messages show similar language in separate years. A January 2011 email from Nikolic says he wants "young hot models" and references "russian hookers(grls)" [3]. An April 2011 message requests "girl on girl action pics of Melanie" [4]. A July 2010 exchange includes Epstein asking whether Nikolic checked photos and writing that one person was "younger and smarter" [5].
None of those lines identifies age in a way that independently verifies legal status for each person referenced. That distinction matters. The documents support strong claims about explicit sexualized requests and language between named correspondents. They do not automatically prove the age or identity of every person discussed in every line. The key evidentiary point is narrower and stronger: these records show a sustained, direct, and explicitly sexualized communication channel between Nikolic and Epstein across multiple years.

Money, Access, And Context Around High-Profile Networks
The same correspondence set also contains money and access discussions. In August 2013, Epstein emails Nikolic and Larry Cohen proposing a structure where "bill lends boris 10 million dollars" so Nikolic could buy out a foundation interest, describing the deal as "clean" and tied to a release of future investment-partnership interests [6]. A March 2012 message from Epstein to Nikolic references "the job i was doing for you" as "invaluble" and discusses a "candidate solution" to Epstein's financial issues [7].
A separate February 2013 logistics email from Epstein to Nikolic says that if "Bill melinda and kids" wanted to come to the island, Epstein could arrange helicopter pickup and customs routing [8]. Another December 2012 thread forwarded to Nikolic says Epstein was "super nice to the family" and that "Our kids were entranced by him" after lunch at Little St. James [9]. On its face, that phrase is family context in that message chain, not a standalone criminal allegation.
Public reporting has already established that Nikolic was a former science adviser in Bill Gates' orbit and was named as a backup executor in Epstein's will, then declined the role [11][12]. What the DOJ corpus adds is the texture of direct communications: explicit sexualized requests, specific travel logistics, and proposed financial restructuring terms in Epstein's own correspondence.

[6]Limits, Weight, And What Could Change
These files are evidentiary records, not verdicts. A one-page email capture can firmly establish that a line was sent from one account to another on a date; it cannot always establish the full surrounding context that a complete mailbox, subpoenaed phone records, or sworn testimony might provide [2][3][6]. That distinction is especially important when language is ambiguous. In this set, some lines are explicit and direct [2][3][4]; others, like family-trip references to children, require caution and should be read in their full chain context rather than isolated snippets [8][9].
Public reporting has already documented core background facts, including Nikolic's role in Gates' orbit and his appearance in the 2019 will paperwork [11][12][13]. The value of this article is narrower: it consolidates a verified document trail showing explicit requests, continuing contact, and financial structuring language in Epstein-linked correspondence.
Processing is ongoing. In the currently processed corpus, these are the records we can verify now. Additional unprocessed volumes may add context, contradiction, or clarification. Read the source files directly. These are the government's own records. [1][2][3][6][9]
At minimum, the current DOJ record shows this: Boris Nikolic was not a distant name on one legal document. He appears in thousands of indexed records and in direct email traffic with Epstein that includes explicit requests, island logistics, and investment-structure negotiations.
