The House Ethics Committee will investigate U.S. Rep. Trey Radel, R-Fla., the congressman who caused a commotion after he pled guilty to misdemeanor possession of cocaine in November, according to CNN.
Radel was placed on probation.

Many called for him to step down from his position in the House of Representatives, but Radel opted to take a leave of absence from Congress and attend rehab instead.
