Former Campaign Treasurer of George Santos, Nancy Marks, Pleads Guilty in Federal Court

Nancy Marks, the former campaign treasurer for Republican Representative George Santos of New York, pleaded guilty to conspiracy to defraud, admitting that she fraudulently reported fake loans totaling hundreds of thousands of dollars that Santos had claimed he made to his campaign. Marks and Santos allegedly devised a scheme to inflate the campaign's fundraising numbers in order to mislead the Federal Election Commission, a national party committee, and the public. Santos has been indicted on multiple charges, including wire fraud and money laundering, and has denied any wrongdoing. He has also faced allegations of inflating his resume.

Former Campaign Treasurer of Rep. George Santos to Plead Guilty in Federal Felony Case

Nancy Marks, the former campaign treasurer and close aide to Rep. George Santos, is set to plead guilty to an unspecified felony in connection with the federal investigation into financial irregularities surrounding the indicted New York Republican. Marks' plea comes as Santos faces a 13-count federal indictment for charges of money laundering and lying to Congress. The investigation has raised questions about Santos' campaign finances and his fabricated life story. If Marks testifies against Santos, it could be detrimental to the Republican's case, as he is accused of embezzlement, lying in financial disclosures, and receiving unemployment funds improperly.
