The person reportedly downloaded a file containing testimony from a woman claiming to have had sex with the now-former congressman when she was 17.
A hacker has reportedly accessed a computer file containing “damaging testimony” related to now-former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) and allegations that he had sex with an underage girl.
The file, which was being shared through a secure link among lawyers representing the women, was downloaded Monday afternoon by an unknown person, The New York Times reported Tuesday, citing an unidentified source.
“The file of 24 exhibits is said to include sworn testimony by a woman who said that she had sex with Mr. Gaetz in 2017 when she was 17, as well as corroborating testimony by a second woman who said that she witnessed the encounter,” the Times reported.
The documents, which do not appear to have been immediately made public by the hacker, reportedly include information that’s under seal with the Justice Department and the House Ethics Committee, both of which have investigated Gaetz for sexual misconduct.
The DOJ declined to file charges against Gaetz following its own sex trafficking probe into the then-congressman.
