Gaetz ethics report says he paid for underage sex and drugs while in office
- The House Ethics Committee found evidence that former Representative Matt Gaetz paid tens of thousands of dollars to women for sex or drugs on at least 20 occasions, including paying a 17-year-old girl for sex in 2017, according to a final draft of the panel’s report on the Florida Republican, obtained by CNN.
- The committee concluded that Gaetz violated Florida state laws, including the state’s statutory rape law, as the GOP-led panel chose to take the rare step of releasing a report about a former member who resigned from Congress.
- Nearly every young woman that the committee interviewed confirmed that she was paid for sex by, or on behalf of, Representative Gaetz.
- Some women felt that the use of drugs at the parties and events they attended may have impaired their ability to really know what was going on or fully consent.
