Hollywood Producer Director Barry Josephson Emails Jeffrey Epstein “How Do We Get Rid Of Poor People..” & Mentions Bill Gates

Barry Josephson Emails Jeffrey Epstein, Mentions Bill Gates, and asks “how do we get rid of poor people as a whole.. when can i call you today to discuss this??”

Enforcing evidence of the world depopulation theories. Another ‘conspiracy theory’ that just came true?

This email chain, dated early February 3rd, 2011, is a forwarded thread from recently unsealed Jeffrey Epstein documents. It involves Epstein and Hollywood producer/director Barry Josephson (known for projects like Bones).

This email surfaced in the U.S. Department of Justice’s Epstein file releases around February 2026, sparking controversy over the phrasing about “getting rid of poor people” (attributed to Epstein’s alleged conversation with Gates).

Many Americans interpret this as literally linking to the to depopulation theories of Bill Gates’ philanthropy and ‘vaccines’. Which should really be called gene therapy.

Key elements of the conversation:

• The thread starts with Josephson emailing Epstein excitedly (“COOL!!!! I’m excited”) and referencing a prior question Epstein reportedly asked Bill Gates: “how do we get rid of poor people as a whole.” Josephson says he’s been thinking about it and has an “answer/comment” to share, asking when he can call Epstein to discuss it.
• Epstein forwards this to someone (redacted as “your niece” in the subject, likely a typo for “niece”), but the main exchange is between Josephson and Epstein.
• The discussion abruptly shifts to Josephson’s inquiry about Epstein’s “niece” — a 16-year-old girl reportedly in New York for a few weeks. Josephson asks for her full name again, her mother’s contact info, and notes a friend is shooting a feature film in NY and he’ll try to get her involved (implying an audition or role).
• Epstein responds politely (“thank you veryvery much”) and asks Josephson how old she is now.
• Earlier in the chain (from Josephson to Epstein), he seeks the same details about the girl.

The pivot to discussing a 16-year-old girl (described as Epstein’s niece, possibly for modeling or film opportunities) adds a disturbing layer given Epstein’s criminal history involving underage girls.

Overall, the email highlights Epstein’s ongoing social and professional networking in 2011 (post his 2008 conviction), including ties to Hollywood figures like Josephson and references to high-profile names like Bill Gates.

The full “answer” to the Gates question isn’t provided in this excerpt.
