While prosecutors declined to bring charges against Gaetz for having sex with underage girls, he was never "fully exonerated," i.e. declared innocent. https://www.law.umich.edu/special/exoneration/Pages/glossary.aspx#:~:text=In%20general%2C%20an%20exoneration%20occurs,evidence%20of%20innocence%20becomes%20available.
