Reacher star went to school with the former Florida representative, who has since been accused of illegal drug use and paying for sex with a minor. Alan Ritchson, star of the hit TV series Reacher, has spoken out against his former classmate Matt Gaetz, labeling him his “adversary.”.
The 42-year-old actor, who spent part of his childhood living in Niceville, Florida, went to high school with the controversial Republican, also 42. “It's shocking to me that the panhandle of Florida continues to vote for somebody — knowing everything we know about him and the promises that he's made behind closed doors about pardoning certain criminals — he's just not a good dude!”.
The Independent has contacted Gaetz’s representative for comment. In the last months of Trump’s first presidential term, the DOJ launched an investigation into whether Gaetz had paid for sex, paid for women to cross state lines to have sex, and if he had sex with a 17-year-old girl. He denied all the allegations, and the charges were later dropped in 2023.
