Les Wexner turned over all his wealth to Jeffrey Epstein?
I heard this reported. If true, why do you think he did it?
My first thought was blackmail.
Epstein knew something on Wexner that would have destroyed him if it had come out. The subpoena and Congressional interview did not tell us the full story about the once famous owner of Victoria's Secrets.
He did not get where he was by being naive. He would not sign over everything he owned to Epstein without a good reason, in my opinion.
There is much more to this Les Wexner story.

We know Epstein was a money manager, we know Wexner's were rich and Epstein was employed as their money manager. The family also says they cut off Epstein in like 2007 for stealing from them.
I'm not saying Wexner is categorically innocent (by any stretch), but FBI investigated their relationship a long time ago (I think when working on the Federal case vs. Epstein circa 2019 but not 100 on that), with Wexner and his wife cooperating/testifying, and the Wexner's attorney said the were told they were not targets or suspects at the time. They've never been charged with anything and no proof that they knew he was molesting teenagers has emerged (though he may have, which means he sucks!!!)
I also don't think (again, IIRC) any woman has accused Wexner of sexual misconduct around Epstein other than I think Virginia Guiffre's lawyers named him as "someone who knew or should have known what Epstein was up to" when they sued Maxwell (if I'm recalling the timeline correctly).
Just saying I think the facts supporting your thesis may be pretty thin in this case. Wexner is probably most rightly described as a "knew or should have known" character in the story, at least based on the evidence available now, rather than a perp. Though that may change
