Breaking: Santos charged with fraud, money laundering, theft of public funds, and false statements.
He turned himself in around 9 a.m. Wednesday at federal court in Central Islip. According to the indictment, he faces seven counts of wire fraud, three counts of money laundering, one count of theft of public funds and two counts of making materially false statements to the House of Representatives.
Prosecutors allege Santos received $50,000 in campaign contributions from two separate individuals. Instead of using them for political purposes, he allegedly paid for personal expenses, including designer clothing, to withdraw cash and pay off some personal debt.
