Steve asked about the following will cut and paste / dunno
I still think I would add to the third one to Jeffrey's suggestions — "and just want to say
that victim shaming seems entirely out of place in your story and shows a lack of
integrity and professionalism".
MW 05:58:05 pm
Can you ask Steve to call me
06:07:09 pm
Do not get aggressive with the reporter , serves little purpose
06:14:23 pm

He says I was accused of something i didn't do and therefore am a victim
06:18:22 pm
And that the bank allowed me to be harassed by these allegations
06:18:46 pm
There is nothing more to know
06:18:56 pm
I don't even know what you were accused of?
06:19:11 pm
•
I don't either
06:19:16 pin
My travel and emails were all
Investigated
06:19:33 pm
I've heard everything from Jim misuse of public funding to support me to a romantic
relationship
06:20:03 pm
Whoopsie

Or both as they relate to each other
06:20:49 pm
Gates paid me and my expenses unless they were of direct benefit to bank and then
bank paid expenses. Jim never saw or approved any expenses only the chief of staff. I
never even did travel or accessed the portal or had an account to claim expenses. All
fine through chief of staff
06:21:58 pm
Done through chief of staff
06:22:03 pm
Steve says whatever you say is best and that's fine if too aggressive
06:22:30 pm
I never had access to any system or portal or reporting and had to submit everything I
• did through chief of staff. Not Jim.
06:23:20 pm
There is a very very small window for a win. Which means no name or identifiers , if
not we try ti minimize the damage. Any agressiveness and he can make it
salacious. No need. , no upside and you are not in the pulpit
06:24:01 pm
He did not pay me a salary or give me a raise or promotion or any benefit
06:24:05 pm
Yes got it
06:24:16 pm
• Steve says you know best
06:24:26 pm
EFTA01613269
Forget about what he didn't do. What were the allegations. ?!
06:24:27 pm
•
I don't know? Nothing was ever filed against me
06:24:46 pm
I think i was part of an investigation against him
06:25:06 pm
What I know is that when he fired the iNdia office director a guy named Onno Ruehl
that I've never met - that guy got very angry and started threatening everyone in the
office
06:25:51 pm
And he sent a complaint to the board that he suspected him and I were having a
romantic relationship and said all my travel should be examined and requested they
do that's he wanted justification for my trips and to know my hotels and room
numbers and for any trips wiim his room numbers too or at least that's what I was
told
06:26:54 pm
The board did and the ethics committee did and investigation and they found nothing.
The two trips I had taken w Jim in a few years I shared rooms with other people and
didn't have much contact wiim. Don't think we were on same flights and the teams
were 20+ ppl travel entourage.
06:28:32 pm
melz. . we need answers of course you know. We can't prepare a counter unless
we know the story. If he asks , which he will , did you have a romantic relationship
with kin. What are you going to answer? If he says there were allegations that you
had a romantic relation , ? What is your answer. A categorical denial? Did you travel
toghther. ? let me make it clear. There was no romantic relationship. None zero. ...

No romantic relationship.
06:29:39 pm
Ok how to say that to him with total clarity there isn't and wasn't
06:30:04 pm
I've known him 17 years so I am close to his family/kids etc. so there's a different
familiarity. Its not romantic but I know Jim and his life very well.
06:32:00 pm
We worked together at the WHO
And a lot of back and forth at the Gates foundation and through his work e partners in
health.
06:32:33 pm
It's not romantic at all. Steve is just as good of friends w him as I am.
Although right now I'd say steve and I are both disappointed in him
06:33:39 pm
Tell me what words
I can and should use
06:34:04 pm
Was trying to think of a time where jim and i were ever even alone at work or in an
office and I cant think of one - always staff around. My 1:1 always had chief of staff
and usually the speechwriter or one of his PM.
06:38:56 pm
Never had adjoining rooms w him. Never went to a hotel room with him. Never spent
the night at his house. He never spent the night at my house. Just never even a hint if
anything unusual or out of work bounds.
06:40:41 pm
His admin and his chief of staff (.he had a few chiefs of staff while i was there) were
always around him and me.
