Disgraced former U.S. Rep. George Santos has been sentenced to over seven years in prison for the crimes that got him ousted from Congress. He apologized and appealed Friday for mercy, then sobbed as he heard his 87-month sentence. The New York Republican pleaded guilty last summer to federal wire fraud and aggravated identity theft. Santos admitted he deceived donors and stole the identities of nearly a dozen people to fund his congressional campaign. He served less than a year in Congress before being expelled in 2023 after his lies and fraud were uncovered. His lawyers had called for two years behind bars. Santos is due to report to prison July 25.
