Drug-Fueled Party with Escorts at Dorworth's Home

The parties, particularly the one on July 15, 2017, reportedly featured a range of illegal substances such as cocaine and ecstasy, and were attended by multiple escorts who had unrestricted access to the premises. Witnesses have provided detailed accounts of the events, indicating that call girls were present to engage in sexual activities while alcohol and drugs were consumed freely. Notably, one escort has claimed that she had sexual encounters with Dorworth, who disputes these allegations. While the U.S. Department of Justice opted not to pursue charges against Gaetz, the House Ethics Committee has found substantial evidence suggesting he violated Florida’s statutory rape law and engaged in commercial sex, although it did not conclude he violated federal trafficking laws.

Key Events and Allegations

• Parties at Dorworth’s Home: Witnesses described two separate gatherings, one on July 15 and another on July 22, both attended by Gaetz. The first party included the underage girl, referred to as A.B., who reportedly was naked among adult attendees.

• Witness Testimonies: Testimonies from various attendees and escorts have detailed the atmosphere of the parties, including the prohibition on cell phones to prevent documentation of the events. One escort claimed to have seen Gaetz using cocaine during the party.

• Federal Investigations: The investigation into Gaetz’s conduct has been ongoing, with the Department of Justice concluding its probe without criminal charges. However, the House Ethics Committee’s findings have raised significant concerns about Gaetz’s activities during his time in office, including allegations of sex with A.B. and the use of illegal drugs.

Implications and Consequences

The findings from the House Ethics Committee have marked a pivotal moment in the scrutiny of Gaetz’s actions, presenting a public acknowledgment of wrongdoing despite the absence of criminal charges. Gaetz’s political future may be uncertain, as the controversy surrounding these events continues to evolve, especially considering his previous alignment with high-profile political figures and ongoing public interest in his conduct.
