Matt Gaetz lashes out at House ethics committee as it ramps up investigation into him
The GOP-led House Ethics committee investigating Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz has contacted multiple new witnesses, ABC News reported Tuesday.
The reopened investigation has expanded its contact with people tied to the initial probe of Gaetz which was conducted by the Justice Department.
That investigation, which looked into sex trafficking allegations, concluded with no charges.
"It's great to see the Ethics Committee has interests beyond trading stocks. They seem to be quite the unusual whales," Gaetz said in a statement.
From ABC News: "Fritz Schiller, the attorney for Joel Greenberg, a one-time close friend of Gaetz who was sentenced to 11 years in prison after pleading guilty to federal charges ranging from wire fraud to sex trafficking a minor, told ABC News that he would not "confirm or deny" being in contact with the House Ethics Committee."
