☆ Who Bailed George Santos Out? Court Is Set to Reveal the Mystery.
  + stars: | 2023-06-22 | by ( Michael Gold | Grace Ashford | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Of the many questions that surround Representative George Santos, one has recently taken center stage: Who guaranteed the $500,000 bond that allowed him to be released from federal custody last month? Mr. Santos, 34, and his lawyer have for weeks attempted to thwart efforts to make public the names of his guarantors, at one point claiming to the court that Mr. Santos — who awaits trial on 13 federal criminal charges — would rather go to jail than have them revealed and subjected to public scrutiny. But the mystery surrounding Mr. Santos’s bond is expected to be resolved at noon Thursday, after a federal judge in the Eastern District of New York dismissed his appeal to keep the names sealed. Some of the wilder theories about the source of the bail funds were seemingly put to rest. In court filings opposing the disclosure of the so-called sureties, Mr. Santos’s lawyer, Joseph Murray, all but declared that Mr. Santos’s guarantors were relatives.

☆ George Santos Says His Family Helped Bail Him Out. (Just Don’t Ask Who.)

Mr. Santos, a Republican representing Long Island and parts of Queens, is facing 13 felony counts including money laundering and wire fraud. A group of media organizations, including The New York Times, requested last month that the identities of the people who guaranteed Mr. Santos’s bail bond be unsealed. In a motion filed on Monday, Mr. Murray shared a response he wrote to the Ethics Committee’s questions about bail, in which he pointed to House ethics rules that permit gifts from family members. Mr. Murray said that he would not oppose a targeted unsealing that would confirm to the public and to House investigators that Mr. Santos’s guarantors were family members, without fully revealing their names or exact relationships to Mr. Santos. Though the suretors did not hand over actual money, they will be on the hook for the $500,000 if Mr. Santos flees prosecution.
