George Santos Vows to Prove Himself to Trump After Prison Release
In a surprise move, former New York Rep. George Santos has been released from prison after President Donald Trump's decision to commute his seven-year sentence for wire fraud and aggravated identity theft. During his time behind bars, Santos claimed he was denied basic necessities like a Bible and rosary but found solace in prayer, rekindling his faith.
Speaking out about his gratitude towards the president, Santos emphasized that he is determined not to disappoint Trump, calling his release a "second chance." The former congressman expressed that just one day before his release, he experienced an intensely spiritual moment, which has deepened his connection with God.
Santos recounted attending Mass and receiving confession at the prison's chapel, followed by a visit from President Trump the next day. He stated that this meeting was not coincidental, as he believes it was a sign from God, occurring only one day after his release from solitary confinement.
Beyond his renewed faith, Santos intends to dedicate his second chance to advocating for criminal justice reform. In a commitment made to Trump during their conversation, he vowed to work towards prison reform efforts.
Santos' release has sparked controversy surrounding his conduct and multiple investigations into campaign finance violations. Despite this, the former congressman remains committed to making amends and proving himself to President Trump.
