George Santos pleads guilty to multiple federal fraud counts
Ex-Republican congressman was known for this outlandish lies and
fantasies peddled throughout his short career
Former Republican congressman George Santos pleaded guilty to
committing wire fraud and aggravated identity theft in a federal fraud
case marking yet another low point for a politician famed for the
outlandish lies and fantasies he peddled during his short but high
profile political career.
"I understand that my actions have betrayed my supporters and
constituents," Santos said in an emotional statement during the
hearing. "I am committed to making amends and learning from this
experience."
The disgraced ex-congressman faces a two-year mandatory minimum
sentence under federal guidelines, but in court US district judge
Joanna Seybert estimated a possible sentencing range between six and
eight years when he returns to court again on 7 February.
