Former U.S. Representative George Santos has been sentenced to 87 months (over seven years) in federal prison after pleading guilty to wire fraud and aggravated identity theft. Santos, who served less than a year in Congress before being expelled in December 2023, admitted to defrauding donors and stealing identities to fund his 2022 congressional campaign. Despite expressing remorse during sentencing, Judge Joanna Seybert questioned his sincerity, citing his continued victim narrative on social media. In addition to prison time, Santos was ordered to pay approximately $580,000 in penalties. This case marks a significant conclusion to a political scandal rooted in corruption and deceit
