A second woman testified before the House Ethics Committee that she was paid by former Florida Congressman and current Republican Attorney General-designate Matt Gaetz for sex, says her attorney, who also represents another woman who testified that she was not only paid by Gaetz for sex, but also witnessed Gaetz having sex with a minor, the Washington Post reports.
According to Florida attorney Joel Leppard, his first client saw Gaetz having sex with an underage girl at a “drug-fueled” 2017 party; Gaetz was sworn into Congress in January 2017. According to the witness, Gaetz did not know the girl’s age at the time, but learned it later.
The two women testified to the House Ethics Committee that Gaetz paid them to have sex using various online financial apps and accounts to hide the payments including an account under the name of Gaetz’s alleged adopted son, Nestor, Leppard told the Post.
