Rep. Matt Gaetz facing sex trafficking probe

The Justice Department is investigating whether Rep. Matt Gaetz, a close ally of former President Donald Trump, had a possible sexual relationship with a 17-year-old and paid for her to travel with him. A former department official tells CBS News the investigation began at least last summer. No charges have been brought against the Florida lawmaker, who called a New York Times report on the inquiry "verifiably false" and said he did not have a relationship with a 17-year-old. Nikole Killion reports.
