Matt Gaetz testified to the House Ethics Committee that the now-former Florida congressman had sex with her when she was 17 years old, sources familiar with the investigation told ABC News.</p><p>President-elect Donald Trump announced Wednesday that Gaetz <a href=\"https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/trump-picks-rep-matt-gaetz-attorney-general/story?id=115835796\" target=\"_blank\">had been tapped</a> to serve as attorney general, overseeing the very branch of government that previously conducted its own investigation of him, which ended last year without charges being brought.</p><p>Gaetz resigned from office following Trump's announcement. This came as the House Ethics Committee was in the final stages of its investigation, said sources, who added that the committee was preparing to meet this week to deliberate over whether to <a href=\"https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/growing-calls-house-ethics-committee-share-report-matt/story?id=115869535\" target=\"_blank\">release a final report</a> on the matter.</p><p><inline1></p><p>Over the summer, the House Ethics Committee subpoenaed the woman at the center of the probe -- who is now in her 20s -- and she sat for multiple days of testimony where she testified to the committee that Gaetz had sex with her when she was a minor in high school, sources close to the investigation said.</p><p>\"These allegations are invented and would constitute false testimony to Congress,\" Gaetz said in response to ABC News' reporting. \"This false smear following a three-year criminal investigation should be viewed with great skepticism.\"</p><p>The Justice Department spent years probing the allegations against Gaetz, including allegations of obstruction of justice, before informing Gaetz last year that it would <a href=\"https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/doj-charge-gaetz-sex-trafficking-probe-lawyer-minor/story?id=97225306\" target=\"_blank\">not bring charges</a>.</p><p>Gaetz has long denied any wrongdoing related to the Justice Department probe. In September, he released a detailed response to questions sent to him by the House Ethics Committee, which has been investigating allegations of alleged sexual misconduct and illicit drug use, reiterating his denial of the allegations.</p><p><inline2></p><p>\"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 posted to his social media account.</p><p>\"The Committee鈥檚 star witness, Joel Greenberg, is a felonious liar who involves others in his lies ... Greenberg was initially indicted for attempting to falsely smear a teacher at a local high school as a pedophile,\" Gaetz added regarding former Seminole County tax collector Joel Greenberg, who pleaded guilty to falsely accusing a teacher, who was running for office against him, of a sex crime.</p><p>The woman's allegation regarding Gaetz became part of the investigation following claims by Greenberg, a former friend of Gaetz who is currently serving an 11-year prison sentence after <a href=\"https://abcnews.go.com/US/gaetz-associate-providing-feds-intel-documents-probe-congressman/story?id=79388281\" target=\"_blank\">reaching a deal</a> with investigators in May 2021 in which he pleaded guilty to multiple federal crimes, including sex trafficking of the woman when she was a minor and introducing her to other \"adult men\" who also had sex with her when she was underage.</p><p>According to Greenberg's plea deal, the woman, who ABC News is not identifying, met Greenberg online in 2017 and began meeting him in hotels and houses in the Middle District of Florida, where he \"introduced the Minor to other adult men, who engaged in commercial sex acts with the Minor in the Middle District of Florida,\" court documents said.</p><p>At the time, the minor \"represented that she was an adult\" on the website where she met Greenberg -- and according to his plea agreement, he acknowledges that he \"acted in reckless disregard of the fact that the Minor was less than 18 years old when he engaged in commercial sex acts\" and had a \"reasonable opportunity to observe\" that she was underage.</p><p>Over the course of its investigation, the House Ethics Committee conducted interviews with at least <a href=\"https://abcnews.go.com/US/witness-tells-house-ethics-committee-matt-gaetz-paid/story?id=111217102\" target=\"_blank\">half a dozen women</a> who allegedly attended parties where the Florida congressman was also present, and who were paid by Greenberg, Gaetz's one-time close friend, sources told ABC News. Some of the witnesses had been subpoenaed by the committee, while others agreed to cooperate, according to the sources.</p><p><inline3></p><p>The House Ethics Committee also subpoenaed <a href=\"https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/house-ethic-committee-issues-subpoena-testimony-matt-gaetzs/story?id=107305490\" target=\"_blank\">Gaetz's former girlfriend</a> for testimony, and said she sat for an interview earlier in the year, sources said. The former girlfriend previously testified to a grand jury in the sex trafficking probe, as ABC News previously reported.</p><p>The committee has also obtained a sworn written statement by Gaetz鈥檚 ex-girlfriend where she lists the Florida congressman as one of the attendees at a party in July 2017 where drugs were present and which was attended by the woman who Gaetz allegedly had sex with when she was a minor, sources said.</p><p>ABC News previously reported that the committee obtained written testimony from a separate woman who said that in July 2017, when she was 20 years old, she attended a party in Florida that Gaetz also attended, and which was attended by the woman who was a minor at the time and where drugs including cocaine were present.</p><p>Greenberg, a key witness in the Justice Department probe, has been cooperating with the House Ethics investigation, according to sources. Earlier this year, while serving time in a Florida federal prison, he provided written testimony to the committee, the sources said.</p><p>Some witnesses were shown Venmo payments they allegedly received from Gaetz, sources said.</p><p><inline4></p><p>As ABC News previously reported, one woman who said she attended a party with the Gaetz in 2017, who ABC News is not identifying, told the committee that a payment from Gaetz was for sex, multiple sources told ABC News. Others have said they were paid to attend parties they said Gaetz also attended, and that those parties included drugs and sex, the sources said.</p><p>Gaetz has long denied all of the allegations, including paying for sex, and previously dismissed them by claiming \"someone is trying to recategorize my generosity to ex-girlfriends as something more untoward.\"</p><p>Earlier in the year the committee subpoenaed the Justice Department for records related to its probe into the Florida congressman, sources said. It is unclear if those records were turned over.</p><p>However, the committee had obtained some Venmo records from Gaetz after issuing the company a subpoena, sources told ABC News. During the Justice Department's investigation into Gaetz, public reporting, including by The Daily Beast, largely focused on Venmo records from Greenberg, who, according to his plea agreement, used his account to \"pay for commercial sex acts\" with women he also introduced to others.</p>","publishedDate":"2024-11-14T22:46:00Z","contributors":[{"name":"Will Steakin","url":"https://abcnews.go.com/author/will_steakin","role":"","logo":"","logoAlt":""}],"authorsStr":"Will Steakin","modifiedDate":"2024-11-15T14:48:05Z","section":"US","wordCount":1064,"relatedTags":{"heading":"Related Topics","tags":[{"label":"Matt Gaetz ","href":"/alerts/RepMattGaetz"}]},"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":"115882656","type":"video","locator":"https://abcnews.go.com/WNT/video/sources-woman-told-house-ethics-committee-gaetz-sex-115882656","issued":"2024-11-15T01:15:33Z","created":"2024-11-15T01:15:33Z","modified":"2024-11-15T01:27:53Z","date":"2024-11-15T01:15:33Z","keywords":["President-elect","Donald Trump","Florida Representative","Matt Gaetz","attorney general","woman","House Ethics Committee","investigation","abc","abc news","wnt","Video","115882656"],"section":"WNT","genre":"Politics","title":"Sources: Woman told House Ethics Committee Gaetz had sex with her when she was 17","headline":"Sources: Woman told House Ethics Committee Gaetz had sex with her when she was 17","shortHeadline":"Sources: Woman told House Ethics Committee Gaetz had sex with her when she was 17","linkHeadline":"Sources: Woman told House Ethics Committee Gaetz had sex with her when she was 17","description":"President-elect Donald Trump selected Florida Rep.
