“Justice Department investigators have reached a cooperation agreement with a man whose attorney says he witnessed Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) attend parties involving ‘a whole lot’ of sex and drug use — another potential boon to the sprawling and slow-moving sex trafficking investigation into the congressman,” the Washington Post reports.
“Joseph Ellicott agreed to plead guilty to two federal criminal charges in a case separate from the probe of Gaetz. But Ellicott also has been talking with Justice Department investigators examining whether the congressman committed sex trafficking of a minor.”
“Ellicott’s plea agreement requires him to cooperate fully with the government as they explore other potential crimes.”
