An unidentified hacker has gained access to a computer file shared in a secure link among lawyers whose clients have given damaging testimony related to Matt Gaetz, the former Florida congressman who is President-elect Donald J. Trump’s choice to be attorney general. The file reportedly includes sworn testimony by a woman who claimed she had sex with Gaetz when she was 17.
