His former wingman, Joel Greenberg, is accused of finding the girls with Gaetz on sugar daddy websites. Over a two-year period, Greenberg admitted to spending over $70,000 on escorts. He also admitted to prosecutors that one of the girls he hired was only 17.

As part of his plea deal, Greenberg agreed to turn over evidence and testify against Gaetz. The DOJ has yet to officially bring charges against the politician. For his part, Gaetz denies he ever paid a woman to sleep with him or that he slept with a 17-year-old.

Gaetz’s ex-girlfriend, who is a former staffer on Capitol Hill, is considered a “critical witness” to the investigation. She was dating him during the summer of 2017 when a lot of the alleged crimes took place. As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Gaetz and his ex-girlfriend had their phones seized as part of a warrant obtained by the feds.
