Family Members Revealed as George Santos' Bond Co-Signers.

TL;DR Summary
Newly unsealed court records reveal that two family members of indicted GOP Rep. George Santos cosigned the $500,000 bond that allowed him to go free as his criminal case proceeds. Santos' father and aunt signed on as suretors guaranteeing the unsecured bond when he was charged last month, and their identities had been hidden until Thursday. The media outlets argued there was significant public interest in maintaining transparency in the proceedings involving Santos, and the public and the press have a First Amendment right to access the judicial records.
