He didn't have his license suspended for a year when he refused the breath test — as Florida law dictates. And he didn't have that refusal used against him in a criminal proceeding. Charges against Gaetz were dismissed after events that included, among other things, the forced resignation of the arresting officer.

Another DU'er posted this earlier:

The Florida Bar's disciplinary complaint number is 1-866-352-0707

Matt Gaetz is a lawyer in Florida who likely violated 18 USC 1512, witness tampering, a felony. His Bar number is 48962.

Committing a felony can cost a lawyer their license, perhaps it’s time to make a call?
