Former Campaign Treasurer of Rep. George Santos Set to Plead Guilty to Unspecified Charges in Federal Court

Nancy Marks, the former campaign treasurer of Rep. George Santos, a Republican from New York, is set to appear in federal court Thursday afternoon to plead guilty to unspecified charges related to the criminal case against the congressman.

Santos was indicted in May on 13 counts, including seven counts of wire fraud, three counts of money laundering, one count of theft of public funds, and two counts of making materially false statements to the House of Representatives. He pleaded not guilty and was released on a $500,000 bond.

Marks was responsible for signing off on Santos’ expenses related to the 2022 election, which included 37 charges of $199.99, one cent below the threshold that requires an invoice or receipt. It is unclear what specific charges Marks faces or what connection they have to Santos’ pending case.

The court documents obtained by CBS News show that Marks was arrested and charged with felony charges in New York. It is not yet known what the charges are or what the potential consequences are for Marks.

The case against Santos is ongoing, and it remains to be seen how Marks’ plea will affect the outcome. It is also unclear if Marks will be able to provide any additional information that could help the case against Santos.
