Matt Gaetz faces allegations of paying for sex and engaging with a minor, lawyer claims
tmz.com —
Matt Gaetz, nominated by Donald Trump for Attorney General, is accused of paying two women for sex and having sex with a 17-year-old girl. These claims come from the lawyer of the women involved. The lawyer, Joel Leppard, stated that his clients testified to the House ethics committee. They allege Gaetz used Venmo for payments and that one client witnessed him with the minor at a party in 2017. Gaetz resigned from Congress last week, which halted the ethics investigation. He has denied all allegations of sexual misconduct.
