Overview
George Santos, the former congressman from New York, will have his sentencing on federal fraud and identity theft charges postponed to April 25. A judge approved the delay, granting Santos time to secure funds from his new podcast to cover restitution and forfeiture totaling over $578,000. Prosecutors opposed the delay, labeling Santos’ financial claims as speculative and expressing concern over the implications of allowing him to profit from his notoriety. Santos, having pled guilty in August, faces a substantial prison sentence, including a mandatory minimum two-year term for identity theft.
