Matt Gaetz faces allegations of paying for sex at Florida house party in 2017
Matt Gaetz is accused of paying two women for sex at a Florida house party in 2017. The allegations were made public by the lawyer for the anonymous accusers, who testified before a House Ethics Committee investigating Gaetz. One accuser claims to have seen Gaetz with a 17-year-old girl at the party. The investigation included evidence of Venmo payments, which the accusers said were for sex. Gaetz has denied any wrongdoing. The House Ethics Committee is set to meet to discuss releasing its report on Gaetz, despite his resignation from Congress. Some are calling for transparency as Gaetz's nomination for attorney general is considered by the Senate.
