A lawyer representing two women who testified that Trump’s nominee for attorney general, Matt Gaetz, paid them for sex has revealed new details about their testimony to the House Ethics Committee. The lawyer, Joel Leppard, on Monday told CNN one of his clients was an eyewitness to Gaetz having sex with a minor.
Joel Leppard: “She was invited to a party in July of 2017. She testified to the House that as she was walking out to the pool area, she turned to her right and she witnessed her client — I’m sorry, her friend having sex with Representative Gaetz, and her friend at that time was 17.”
Leppard has called on the House Ethics Committee to release its report on Gaetz, who resigned from Congress last week, even as President Trump tapped him to lead the Justice Department. So far Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson has refused calls to release the report on Gaetz.
