The guarantors were listed as Elma Santos Preven and Gercino Dos Santos, according to signatures on the court documents that were unsealed. But Santos’ father and aunt “agreed to be personally responsible” for the congressman’s compliance with the terms of his release, the order noted. The family members’ names were revealed Thursday after Santos and his lawyer lost an appeal to keep the identities of the bond co-signers under seal. Santos had argued that he needed to shield his bond co-signers to protect their privacy and risked having them with withdraw their support once their names became public. Santos Preven, who also has donated to her nephew’s congressional campaign, was described as a mail handler for the US Postal Service, in an FEC donation record from October 2021.

NEW YORK, June 22 (Reuters) - George Santos's father and aunt were identified on Thursday as the guarantors of the indicted U.S. representative's $500,000 bail, after Santos fought unsuccessfully to keep them anonymous. The House of Representatives' Ethics Committee also wanted the names, to determine whether Santos violated congressional rules on gifts. Seybert called it "disingenuous" to suggest that Santos' father and aunt might be endangered, noting that they came forward to offer help after the congressman's high-profile arraignment and expressed no concerns about guaranteeing bail. "My family & I have made peace with the judges decision to release their names," Santos posted on Twitter.
