John Clune, a lawyer for the woman who has accused Gaetz of having an inappropriate relationship with her as a high schooler, called on lawmakers to “immediately” release their findings about Gaetz.
“Mr. Gaetz’s likely nomination as Attorney General is a perverse development in a truly dark series of events,” Clune said in a statement. “We would support the House Ethics Committee immediately releasing their report. She was a high school student and there were witnesses.”
Complicating matters for the committee is that Gaetz, 42, has already resigned from Congress after Trump appointed him to be his attorney general. That means Gaetz is no longer a congressman, nullifying any jurisdiction they had held over him.
