Hacker gets hold of file with sex trafficking testimony against AG pick Matt Gaetz

An unauthorized user accessed a case file containing confidential material related to lurid testimony women have given about Attorney General-designate Matt Gaetz, according to one of the lawyers involved in the matter.

The documents — part of a defamation lawsuit filed by a former Florida lawmaker against both a friend of Gaetz who pleaded guilty in 2021 to charges including sex trafficking a minor and a woman who said the then-Republican congressman had sex with her when she was 17 years old — reportedly include testimony from both Gaetz’s accuser and a purported witness to the encounter.

Gaetz has strenuously denied wrongdoing.

“We were informed last night that an unauthorized user accessed a shared file with a number of confidential documents from the dismissed lawsuit,” Colorado-based attorney John Clune, who represents the former minor, told The Post Tuesday.

Former state GOP Rep. Christopher Dorworth pursued the suit, saying he was slandered when former Seminole County tax collector Joel Greenberg and the woman told federal investigators that Dorworth hosted drug-fueled sex parties attended by Gaetz, the New York Times reported.

Dorworth’s team filed a motion for a voluntary dismissal earlier this year.

Greenberg is serving an 11-year sentence after admitting to recruiting women for paid sex, one of whom was underage.

The files were downloaded Monday afternoon by a user identified as Altam Beezley, the Times reported, citing a source.

A case lawyer tried to connect with Altam Beezley via email but the message reportedly bounced back with a disclaimer stating that the recipient didn’t exist.

Exhibits in the hacked file — which have not yet been made public — included testimony from the former minor and a female witness, according to the Times.

The file also contained testimony from Dorworth, his wife and former Gaetz campaign treasurer Michael Fischer — as well as gate logs that revealed who went to Dorworth’s property during the day in question.

The Post contacted the attorney representing the witness for comment.

An attorney who worked on Dorworth’s case told The Post, “We have received no confirmation from any opposing counsel as to any such event, and our firm has not been the subject of any such event.”

“I cannot comment on the substance of unconfirmed reports.

News of the purported hack comes as Congress grapples with President-elect Donald Trump’s controversial selection of Gaetz to serve as his AG.

There have been multiple investigations of allegations that Gaetz paid women, including a minor, for sex back in 2017. Gaetz has maintained that he did not break the law.

The Justice Department reviewed allegations that Gaetz paid women to cross state lines for sex and declined to pursue charges.

Additionally, the House Committee on Ethics is believed to have drafted a report into its investigation of Gaetz but has not yet decided whether or not to make it public amid demands from senators to see it.

“Matt Gaetz will be the next Attorney General. He’s the right man for the job and will end the weaponization of our justice system,” Trump transition spokesperson Alex Pfeiffer told The Post Monday.

“These are baseless allegations intended to derail the second Trump administration. The Biden Justice Department investigated Gaetz for years and cleared him of wrongdoing. The only people who went to prison over these allegations were those lying about Matt Gaetz.”
