The political donor behind Ron DeSantis's rapid rise to prominence took his own life after he was accused of having an inappropriate relationship with an underaged teen, a DailyMail.com investigation has revealed.
Kent Stermon's suicide in December came shortly after the girl's father turned down a 'five-figure sum' in a hush-money deal and reported him to the police instead, we have learned.
The prominent DeSantis ally and GOP donor, who was based in Jacksonville, Florida, was accused of having an inappropriate relationship with the girl, for whom he obtained highly sought-after Taylor Swift concert tickets which he said he'd give her if she sent him a photo of her breasts.
Jacksonville Sheriff's Office has repeatedly refused to comment on the investigation when contacted by DailyMail.com saying the probe is ongoing.
