Rep. George Santos, R-N.Y., pleaded not guilty in a New York court Friday on a revised federal indictment charging him with multiple counts of fraud.
Santos appeared at a courthouse on Long Island to enter the plea to the new allegations, which include conspiracy to commit offenses against the U.S., wire fraud, lying to the Federal Election Commission (FEC), and more.
He is due back in court on Dec. 12.
The U.S. Attorney’s office filed a 23-count superseding indictment against Santos earlier this month in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York.
GEORGE SANTOS IN CUSTODY, FEDERAL INDICTMENT UNSEALED AHEAD OF FIRST COURT APPEARANCE
The new indictment contains one count of conspiracy to commit offenses against the U.S., two counts of wire fraud, two counts of making false statements to the FEC, two counts of falsifying records submitted to the FEC, two counts of aggravated identity theft and one count of device fraud.
The charges were in addition to the original indictment filed in May, which included seven counts of wire fraud, three counts of money laundering, one count of theft of public funds and two counts of making false statements to the U.S. House of Representatives.
Santos pleaded not guilty to those charges.
The latest indictment alleges that Santos, who also goes by Anthony Devloder, participated in two fraudulent schemes, in addition to the multiple fraudulent schemes alleged in the original indictment.
A group of House Republicans from New York on Thursday officially filed a privileged resolution to expel Santos from Congress.
