Well someone out there has been praying for Mr. Gaetz. He won reelection in Florida recently with 67.9% of the vote. Let's round that up to sweet 69 and send Mr. Gaetz a
prostitute 1969 French Rose as a gift to celebrate.
Coincidentally his friend and former travel partner also went up for a vote. He got 11 years in prison for sex trafficking of a minor, plus a bunch of petty stuff that they don't usually bother with for friends of Congressmen. The federal sex offense was the mistake.
His lawyer entered into the record:
Quote:
“If the government is so concerned with general deterrence, then why hasn’t it prosecuted the other individuals, including public figures, who were also involved in Greenberg’s offenses?” Mr. Scheller said. “Indeed, Greenberg’s plea agreement refers to the involvement of multiple co-conspirators, including individuals involved in his sex offense.” He added that Mr. Greenberg’s account had been corroborated “by other witnesses and records.”

It must be worrying to be one of multiple co-conspirators knowing that there are witnesses, records and I believe "substantial" cooperation from the convicted today. The judge in fact pointed out:
Quote:
“He has provided substantial cooperation to the government — more than I’ve seen in 22 years,” Judge Gregory A. Presnell said.

That sounds like a lot of cooperation.
Fortunately Mr. Gaetz's involvement seems to have been forgotten about so he can carry on voting in the House of Representatives on issues not just for Florida but for all of America.
