"George Santos's Defense Dives into Thousands of Documents in Alleged Fraud Case"

A federal judge in New York postponed proceedings in the alleged financial fraud case against Rep. George Santos after prosecutors provided over 80,000 documents for review. Santos, who has pleaded not guilty, was indicted on 13 counts of financial crimes, including defrauding political donors and lying about his employment status. The defense requested more time to review the documents, and the judge set a new deadline for discussing motion deadlines and a trial date. Santos could face up to 20 years in prison if convicted.
