Last year, following a yearslong investigation, the Justice Department <a href=\"https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/doj-charge-gaetz-sex-trafficking-probe-lawyer-minor/story?id=97225306\" target=\"_blank\">declined to bring any charges</a> against the congressman.</p><p>Last week, Gaetz stated that he would no longer voluntarily participate in the House Ethics probe, which he blasted as a \"political payback exercise,\" and said that he had recently learned that the committee had issued -- but not yet served him -- a subpoena for his testimony.</p><p>The Florida congressman also reiterated his denial that he ever had sex with a minor. \"Your correspondence of September 4 asks whether I have engaged in sexual activity with any individual under 18. The answer to this question is unequivocally NO. You can apply this response to every version of this question, in every forum,\" Gaetz said in a statement to the committee posted on social media.</p><p>Members of the House Ethics Committee declined to comment to ABC News. Representatives for Gaetz did not respond to a request for comment.</p><p>When reached for comment, Greenberg's attorney, Fritz Scheller, told ABC News, \"While I am reluctant to comment on a pending congressional investigation, Joel Greenberg鈥檚 position remains the same. He will fully cooperate with all congressional inquiries, whether by subpoena or not, and regardless of whether the cooperation occurs in the rain or on a train, with a fox or in a box. Yes, Mr. Greenberg will fully cooperate here or there, he will cooperate anywhere.\"</p><p><inline2></p><p>Among the documents related to the civil lawsuit, according to court filings, is the deposition of the woman who Gaetz allegedly had sex with when she was a minor, as well as testimony from another woman who was a witness in the DOJ investigation, plus Dorworth's deposition and an affidavit from Gaetz's former girlfriend. Those documents could be turned over to Congress as part of its ongoing probe into related allegations.</p><p>The documents Congress is seeking stem from a lawsuit brought last year by Dorworth, who alleged that the onetime minor, identified in the lawsuit only as \"A.B.,\" and others, including Greenberg and his family, worked to defame him amid the Justice Department's probe.</p><p>Gaetz, who was not a party in the suit, was scheduled to sit for his own deposition as a witness in the lawsuit prior to Dorworth dropping the suit in early September. Dorworth has a separate ongoing defamation lawsuit against the Greenbergs in state court.</p><p>It is unclear if and what documents have been handed over to Congress. And while many of the lawsuit's documents, including depositions and sworn statements, remain sealed, recent public court filings shed some light on what alleged details could be included in the underlying documents requested by Congress.</p><p>One filing, Exhibit 23 in a motion for attorneys fees filed by attorneys representing the Greenbergs, details some of the allegations made during discovery in the lawsuit, including that Gaetz was allegedly among the guests at a July 2017 party that \"A.B.,\" who was 17 years old at the time, also attended. The filing states that according to a woman who attended the party, there was \"alcohol, cocaine, ecstasy also known as molly, and marijuana\" present, that there was \"access to the bedrooms\" for \"sexual activities,\" and that A.B. was seen naked at the gathering.</p><p><inline3></p><p>In July, the House Ethics Committee released a rare statement updating the status of its probe into Gaetz. The committee stated that it had stopped looking into certain claims, including whether the Florida congressman misused state identification records or accepted a bribe or improper gratuity, but that its investigation had found that other allegations \"merit continued review.\"</p><p>The committee said that it would continue to review claims that Gaetz \"engaged in sexual misconduct and illicit drug use\" and that he \"sought to obstruct government investigations of his conduct.\"</p><p>In Gaetz's statement last week regarding the committee probe, he reiterated his denial of any wrongdoing while seemingly responding to a string of questions the committee issued to him earlier in the month.</p><p>In response to whether or not he had ever used illicit drugs, Gaetz stated, \"I have not used drugs which are illegal, absent some law allowing use in a jurisdiction of the United States. I have not used 'illicit' drugs, which I consider to be drugs unlawful for medical or over-the-counter use everywhere in the United States.\"</p>","publishedDate":"2024-10-15T15:00:33Z","contributors":[{"name":"Will Steakin","url":"https://abcnews.go.com/author/will_steakin","role":"","logo":"","logoAlt":""}],"authorsStr":"Will Steakin","modifiedDate":"2024-10-15T15:03:33Z","section":"US","wordCount":863,"relatedTags":{"heading":"Related Topics","tags":[{"label":"Matt Gaetz ","href":"/alerts/RepMattGaetz"},{"label":"Congress","href":"/alerts/Congress"}]},"lead":{"ratio":"16x9","disableForMobile":false,"type":"xl","mediaType":"video","alignCaptionToBody":true},"ads":{"Sticky":{"kvps":{"test":true}},"RightRail":{"kvps":{"test":true}},"InlineBox":{},"InlineOutstream":{"disabled":false},"Taboola":{"position":"bottom","pageType":"article","config":{"network":"abcnews-abcnews","mode":"thumbnails-a","container":"taboola-below-article-thumbnails","type":"article","targetType":"mix","placement":"Below Article Thumbnails"}}},"featuredVideo":{"id":"111244112","type":"video","locator":"https://abcnews.go.com/GMA/News/video/new-details-house-ethics-probe-florida-rep-matt-111244112","issued":"2024-06-19T12:19:45Z","created":"2024-06-19T12:19:45Z","modified":"2024-06-19T14:33:40Z","date":"2024-06-19T12:19:45Z","keywords":["matt gaetz","florida","house ethics","investigation","payment","sexual misconduct","venmo","payments","underage","sex","gma","abc news","Video","111244112"],"section":"GMA","subSection":"News","genre":"Top Stories","title":"New details on House ethics probe of Florida Rep.
