Woman testifies to House Ethics Committee about alleged sexual encounter with Gaetz at 17

A woman testified to the House Ethics Committee that Rep. Matt Gaetz had sex with her when she was 17. This follows a lengthy Justice Department investigation into sex trafficking allegations against Gaetz, which ended without charges last year. Gaetz resigned after being named by President-elect Donald Trump for a cabinet position. The House Ethics Committee is finalizing its investigation and has interviewed multiple witnesses, including Gaetz's former girlfriend, regarding allegations of sexual misconduct and drug use. The investigation includes claims from Joel Greenberg, a former associate of Gaetz, who is serving prison time for sex trafficking. Greenberg's plea deal revealed that he introduced the woman to other adult men for sex when she was a minor. Gaetz has consistently denied all allegations.
