The Justice Department on Wednesday unsealed 13 federal charges against Rep. George Santos – including fraud related to Covid-related unemployment benefits and using campaign funds for luxury clothing – and the New York Republican is in custody
Rep. George Santos was taken into custody Wednesday as the Justice Department unsealed 13 federal charges against the New York Republican, accusing him of fraud related to Covid-19 unemployment benefits, misusing campaign funds and lying about his personal finances on House disclosure reports.
Santos lied on House disclosure reports, prosecutors say Santos made false statements on multiple financial disclosure reports to the House of Representatives during his two congressional races, according to the indictment. Congressional candidates are required to file sworn financial disclosures before an election, which give a full accounting of that candidate’s finances, like their assets and income.
