I don't understand why we can't have transparency on how Epstein made his money, and how it was spent. There must be a money trail. Seems like the odds are good that he got a hundred thousand here, another hundred thousand there, and that the people giving him that money most likely paid for unsavory services. That would drill down to the truth quickly.

By definition, the way he made his money wasn't transparent. So it will be hard to investigate and provide that transparency.

People have their panties in a bunch because someone comes from Mexico during the harvest season to pick crops, but they don't seem to care about this. To stay on-topic, it seems like if records show Gates didn't give Epstein any $$$, it should be case closed on this accusation.

Honestly I don't care, I think if most men where offered to go to an Island with a lot of sexy women they that would have sex with them they would.
I doubt people there where exchanging IDs, Its not like these where 12 year olds, they where 17 and in many places in the west where its perfectly legal to have sex with a 16 year old.
The most likely scenario here is that Epstien invited rich powerful men to have sex with these girls in order to gain leverage over them.
from wikipedia regarding Prince Andrew:
On 30 December 2014, a Florida court filing by lawyers Bradley J. Edwards and Paul G. Cassell alleged that Andrew was one of several prominent figures to have participated in sexual activities with a minor later identified as Virginia Giuffre,[8] who was allegedly trafficked for sex by Epstein.[9] Giuffre (then known by her maiden name Virginia Roberts) asserted that she was raped by Andrew on three occasions, including a trip to London in 2001 when she was 17,[10] and later in New York and on Little Saint James, U.S. Virgin Islands.[11] She alleged Epstein paid her $15,000 to have sex with Andrew in London.[10] Flight logs show Andrew and Giuffre were in the places she alleges the sex happened.

So you're gonna totally ignore the part about the girls being initially tricked to get control over them and then coerced into prostitution?

How many times does a victim return to the scene of the crime to be re-victimized before you realize they had a choice in the matter?

Returning doesn't mean they weren't tricked. Having choice doesn't mean they weren't tricked (that one in particular is your stupidity; if given the choice to drink cyanide or hemlock, it is still a choice).
