Looks like they added two new prosecutors to the case:
The Justice Department has added two top prosecutors from Washington to the child sex trafficking investigation of Representative Matt Gaetz, according to two people briefed on the matter, a sign of the complex and high-stakes nature of the inquiry into Mr. Gaetz, a Florida Republican who is one of former President Donald J. Trump’s closest congressional allies.
The prosecutors — one a public corruption investigator with an expertise in child exploitation crimes, and the other a top leader of the public corruption unit — have been working on the Florida-based investigation for at least three months, the people said.
It is not unusual for prosecutors from the Justice Department in Washington to be added to local teams of federal investigators in high-profile cases that require a deep and specific expertise like sex crimes.
I haven't seen it mentioned in this thread that greenberg was actually telling the police that he had seen gaetz have sex with the underage girl, but that article says so. With an eye witness and electronic evidence, it's hard to see this not ending up at trial.
America is weird.
If you have R Kelly money you can pee on underage girls.
If you have Epstein money, you can buy an island for underage girls.
If you have Eddie Munster money it seems to only buy you a few underage whatsapp escorts.
Capitalism is a crazy pimp.
I'm not sure -- if there was an eyewitness and a recording of me doing a crime, I'd plead out the second I got the chance. But yeah, if Greenberg taped things Gaetz was doing, holy shit, their relationship was toxic. Which I guess it had to be if they teamed up to rape children.
After I hit submit I thought, yeah, the most effective way to keep your partner from ratting you out is to have evidence he committed the same crime.
I am kind of looking forward to the on-the-stand depiction of the Venmo payments. Could be comedy gold, if it wasn't about raping children.
Todd Gee? 5head is cooked.

Doesn't have anything to do with the investigation, but want to add more to the pile of how big of a moron this dude is.
‘Delinquent’ Matt Gaetz Currently Blocked from Practicing Law
It's not like he's practiced anything law-related recently. You know, doing interviews while under investigation which would be the opposite of what most lawyers would ever tell you. He's remarkably unproductive on the legislative front too.
Probably prepping for his trial/potential jail time by saving himself a little bit of cash for one last rager.
Looks like someone ran to the ATM.
"Whoa! Why did you post his address?"
Um...he's the one that posted it. In public. I'm just showing you.
I think his address was already a matter of public record so anyone who wanted to find it out could already do so. Just so long as he doesn't get more underage girls sent to his house.
Wait till people find out about these things called "phone books", where your address and phone number and name were all publicly posted and distributed to nearly everyone in the city.
They still exist, they've just gone digital to save on printing.
People got fuckin' weird about things like addresses the last decade or so, while simultaneously liveblogging their colonoscopies on Facebook. I don't get it.
