Hecklers Berate Santos Outside Long Island Courthouse

June 30, 2023 Homocons, Republicans

Rep. George Santos of New York appeared briefly in federal court on Long Island Friday for what attorneys called a “basic status conference” as the criminal case against him moves forward.

It was the first court appearance since the embattled Republican congressman pleading not guilty last month to a 13-count indictment accusing him of fraud, money laundering and theft of public funds.

Earlier this week, the government began turning over more than 80,000 pages of material to Santos’ legal team, prosecutor Ryan Harris told the judge, kicking off discovery in the case. Santos, who has denied wrongdoing, said nothing throughout the hearing.
