Lawyer claims clients testified Gaetz paid for sex before House Ethics Committee
Two women testified to the House Ethics Committee that former Rep. Matt Gaetz paid them for sex, according to their attorney. One witness claimed to have seen Gaetz with a 17-year-old girl at a party in 2017. The Justice Department previously investigated Gaetz but did not file charges. Gaetz has denied any wrongdoing. The House Ethics Committee is expected to discuss its report on Gaetz soon. Gaetz's nomination for Attorney General faces skepticism from several Republican senators. His attorney has called for the Ethics Committee to release its findings amid ongoing scrutiny.
