Former Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz Faces Drug-Sexual Allegations Violation

The U.S. House Ethics Committee has ruled that former Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz violated laws by paying a 17-year-old girl for sexual services and illegally purchasing and using drugs. This information was revealed in a report by CBS News, which presented a draft of the committee's final report.

Gaetz, who has denied the allegations, resigned from the U.S. House of Representatives last month. He had been nominated by then-President-elect Donald Trump for the position of Attorney General, but he withdrew from the nomination process due to difficulties in securing Senate confirmation.
