The U.S. House Ethics Committee has found that former Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz violated state laws by paying a 17-year-old girl for sex and purchasing drugs illegally, CBS News reported on Monday, citing a final draft of the panel's report. Gaetz, who has denied wrongdoing, resigned from the House of Representatives last month after he was selected by President-elect Donald Trump to be attorney general. Reuters was not immediately able to reach Gaetz for comment.
