It is Gaetz is who called Greenberg his "wing man." That is why Greenberg is a witness in this case.

That is why virtually every co-conspirator witness is a scumbag. You're not going to have nice people as witnesses to these sort of sex trafficking crimes. There would be few convictions if only nice people could be witnesses.
