My client testified to the House Ethics Committee that she witnessed Rep. Gaetz having sex with a minor at a house party in Orlando in 2017, attorney Joel Leppard said. The American people deserve to know the truth about the person slated to become the top law enforcement officer in the country.
Gaetz, who was first elected in 2016, has denied any wrongdoing and has not been charged with a crime. A representative for the former congressman told ABC News, Merrick Garland's DOJ cleared Matt Gaetz and didn't charge him.
ABC noted Leppard is representing two separate women who both testified before the ethics committee. The network reported: The two witnesses, who ABC News is not naming, both allegedly attended parties with the congressman.
Gaetz's one-time friend Joel Greenberg is currently serving an 11-year prison sentence after reaching a deal with prosecutors. He pleaded guilty to multiple federal crimes including sex trafficking of the woman when she was a minor.
