Last year, Capitol Police investigated a sex tape incident on the House side in which videos and pictures allegedly showed a staffer engaged in sexual activity in a Capitol office.
According to a report from Semafor, a staffer for Rep. Dan Newhouse (R-WA) was allegedly filmed masturbating in what appeared to be a Capitol office. Then, subsequently, there was a photo of two men allegedly showing them engaging in sex in a Capitol office, Semafor reported.

The Washington Examiner has not viewed the footage of the video or seen the picture.
A spokesperson for Newhouse declined to confirm the staffer’s name but said in a statement that there was an investigation last year and that no “conclusive evidence” was found.

“The office was notified of purported, inappropriate behavior from a staffer,” the spokesperson said. “As soon as the office was alerted, we immediately contacted the appropriate House entities to conduct an independent investigation. No conclusive evidence was found and the staffer resigned a few months later. The office will not be providing further comment on personnel matters.”
This comes just under a week after a staffer on the Senate side was recorded having sexual intercourse with another man in the Senate Judiciary Hearing Room.
