Security breach exposes confidential files in high-profile Florida politician case

An anonymous source confirmed that someone broke into digital files containing private lawyer-to-lawyer documents in a high-profile lawsuit against former florida rep Matt Gaetz. The cyber-incident (which happened just recently) let someone see sensitive legal papers that werent supposed to be public

The accessed files had un-edited sworn statements from witnesses including a key testimony: a woman who stated that Gaetz paid her for intimate relations when she was under-age. The breach which was first mentioned by NY times paper also showed other witness statements related to this case

Gaetz has made his position clear on these claims: he strongly denies ever paying anyone for sex or having any relations with under-age persons. The ex-congressmanʼs statement comes as a direct response to whats written in those now-accessed documents
