News: House of Representatives speaker election
(New York, NY) — Former Long Island Congressman George Santos, who pled guilty to wire fraud and identity theft last week says he is really worried about going to prison. He told WABC’s Cindy Adams that he is terrified about what life behind bars will be like. Santos will likely get six years behind bars for his crimes.
The 36-year-old says he does spend a fair amount of time now thinking about his mistakes and wishing he could go back in time and undo them.
For now, Santos says he spends his days out of the spotlight with his husband, splitting their time in their Manhattan apartment and a rental home they have in the Poconos.
