WASHINGTON — A Justice Department investigation into Representative Matt Gaetz and an indicted Florida politician is focusing on their involvement with multiple women who were recruited online for sex and received cash payments, according to people close to the investigation and text messages and payment receipts reviewed by The New York Times.

Investigators believe Joel Greenberg, the former tax collector in Seminole County, Fla., who was indicted last year on a federal sex trafficking charge and other crimes, initially met the women through websites that connect people who go on dates in exchange for gifts, fine dining, travel and allowances, according to three people with knowledge of the encounters. Mr. Greenberg introduced the women to Mr. Gaetz, who also had sex with them, the people said.

One of the women who had sex with both men also agreed to have sex with an unidentified associate of theirs in Florida Republican politics, according to a person familiar with the arrangement. Mr. Greenberg had initially contacted her online and introduced her to Mr. Gaetz, the person said.

Mr. Gaetz denied ever paying a woman for sex.

The Justice Department inquiry is also examining whether Mr. Gaetz had sex with a 17-year-old girl and whether she received anything of material value, according to four people familiar with the investigation. The sex trafficking count against Mr. Greenberg involved the same girl, according to two people briefed on the investigation.

2. There are sometimes you should just use cash.

Plus teenage escorts???? really???? Are there no workhouses?

[Volaris]

50. Careful jumping to those conclusions. Just because the guy made use

Of a sugar daddy website, does NOT mean those women were underage. Additionally (even tho all of us know full well better),
Many of those sugar baby ads specifically carry disclaimers stating something along the lines of 'donations are for time spent; this is not an ad or solicitation for any illegal act'.

Which means, you gave me money for Time Spent, and then after the fact, I decided I liked you enough to sleep with you.

But as stated, we all know full well better exactly what was happening here. He would have been better off (imho) using an actual professional escort service that prides itself on the discretion of itself and its clientele.

Ymmv, and no 17 year old is, as far as I know, legally allowed to enter into a contract of any type, let alone one where donations are provided for Date Night.

Juat sayin.

(On Edit)--what idiot uses a digital pay service for anything remotely shady...its cash and carry or get the fuck out of here lol.
Hed have an easier time with trying to convince me he didnt open a bitcoin account just to buy all those drugs with, is all I'm sayin .

52. I am so sick of the holier than thou repuke party preaching their MORAL VALUES

seriously SICK of them

[madaboutharry]

3. "Cash App and Apple Pay..."

Are you f**king kidding me!

Gaetz is the keystone cop version of a degenerate.

BTW, am I the only person who thinks Gaetz looks like a cartoon character?

[Maru Kitteh]

11. He looks like a living caricature drawing by a sidewalk artist in a tourist trap.

[OAITW r.2.0]

14. Think Butthead.

As in Bemis and Butthead. Maybe Beemis is Gym Jordan?

[underpants]

21. Jerry Springer wrote checks to prostitutes

Or a whorehouse/madam. That’s why he wasn’t the Mayor of Cincinnati any longer.

Charlie Sheen did too put he just didn’t give a crap.

[RMVet]

48. I think he looks like a mannequin. nt

[MerryHolidays]

54. He does indeed: Robbie Rotten from "Lazy Town"

Gaetz is a dead ringer for RR! (Lazy Town was a cool kid's show...sadly the actor that played RR passed away):

57. You nailed it!!! He IS a caricature of RR! I couldn't place it and it was

Driving me crazy.

[Politicub]

4. Oh, my. Lordy, there are receipts!

[Maru Kitteh]

5. Were these actual women? Or underage girls?

[EYESORE 9001]

16. It does seem that the article tosses around the word 'women' a lot

I’m sure we’ll hear it a lot more as this unfolds - much more often than the word ‘girls.’

[Blue_true]

26. He was a fairly young, decent looking, wealthy male.

Generally that type can do ok with some women by going to dance bars.

The picture seems to be clarifying that he was likely into girls instead of women.

[AnotherMother4Peace]

36. Gaetz already framed it as "17 year old women" in his

Tucker Carlson interview, in the context of what he said were false charges. He really emphasized the word "women" so he knew it's out there.

[SunSeeker]

45. Yes. That's infuriating. A 17-year-old is a girl (minor), not a woman (adult).

[wnylib]

47. Yup. For some perspective, a 17 year old is

the age of a high school junior or senior.

[AnotherMother4Peace]

49. A 17-year-old female is a girl. Gaetz is a predator who needs to

be held accountable. He's despicable and a pig.

[Sanity Claws]

6. Wonder who is the third unidentified person in Florida politics

[Walleye]

17. Gym Jordan?He is creepy enough

[Sanity Claws]

55. He is not in Florida politics

The article specifically said Florida politics

[Walleye]

56. Yeah thanks I caught that on rereading it. But I don't put it past Jordan

[underpants]

23. Stone

You watch.

[FalloutShelter]

28. Ding*

Roger is the Rosetta Stone of everything creepy and criminal in the GOP.

[crickets]

35. Oooo. Oh, please. Oh, please, pleeeeeease. *big 'puss in boots' eyes*

[Volaris]

51. Nope. My money's still on stones into the body builder types.

That Nixon tat on his back is there for a reason...Stones a power bottom.

I sure hope the unidentified Florida Republican who slept with Matt Gaetz’s prostitute is Marco Rubio so we can troll him with relevant Bible verses until the end of time.

I think the Matt Gaetz takeaway here is Dick Cheney can still call in a favor or two.

10. See yeah, Matt!

Don't worry Matt, when I think Republican, I see your stand-in Butthead.

[Cha]

12. lol.. Definitely Popcorn!

Imagine the Perv Arrogance of Paying for Sex online.

[RockRaven]

13. Now would be a good time for reporters to question McCarthy again about Gaetz's committee

assignments. Let's see him double down.

[EYESORE 9001]

22. I'm sure the media will get around to it

just as soon as they find the last remaining Democrat that they haven’t asked about Andrew Cuomo.

[Blue_true]

18. That guy likely didn't like females that showed and hint of wrinkles.

If he was into what the article alleges, generally people that do that have a “type” that they prefer.

He was what is called a sugar daddy. Typically older men that can’t attract women on just looks do that, if they have the wealth. The possibility that he was doing that as a reasonably attractive young man likely says that he was into more than just simple, legal female company.

[Mopar151]

30. Elvis. nt

[Blue_true]

31. That is a good example.

Chuck Berry was arrested a couple times for having intimate relationships with girls. Elvis was never touched once, in fact, his allure to females was celebrated.

[Thrill]

19. He's Fucked

25. That's what the receipt says

[RANDYWILDMAN]

32. But he is only guilty if a jury of 12 white Gop floridians with trump stickers on cars, say so

otherwise he guilt is very unreasonable....says no one ever !

[BobTheSubgenius]

33. This just doesn't get any better for Baby Gaetz, does it?

[Larissa]

37. The adage still rings true

"I've always said that in politics, your enemies can't hurt you, but your friends will kill you."

[infullview]

38. Yes but did the girls claim this income on their taxes

[Hekate]

39. Much more popcorn needed

[burrowowl]

41. Hee!Hee!

[Kid Berwyn]

42. Then there's the fake IDs.

That wasn’t me. That was John Q. Smith from Anytown, Fla.

[smb]

60. She Was 18! She Had A Brand New ID That Says So!! nt

[GulfCoast66]

43. If you have not read about Joel Greenberg, do so.

It proves Florida republicans think they are untouchable. And they pretty much are. We’ve known Greenberg was crooked for 3 years but not a single republicans politician investigated. It was the feds who got him.

[Initech]

46. If you are going to solicit sex from prostitutes, maybe, I don't know, don't use fucking Cash App!

Seriously any form of electronic payment for anything is very easily IP traceable.

61. Best part...

"The Justice Department inquiry is also examining whether Mr. Gaetz had sex with a 17-year-old girl and whether she received anything of material value,..."

Unlikely, if you ask me... cash maybe, but she likely didn't get anything of substance out of that encounter.
