U.S. Rep. George Santos had 2017 Pennsylvania theft charge expunged in connection with bad cheques written to dog breeders
U.S. Rep. George Santos was charged with criminal theft in Pennsylvania in 2017 in connection with bad cheques apparently used to buy puppies from dog breeders, according to a lawyer who said she helped the Republican with the case.
A spokesperson for the York County district attorney’s office in Pennsylvania, where the charges were filed, said the office cannot comment on expunged cases. Pennsylvania state police officials did not return messages seeking comment. Some people familiar with the group have questioned what became of the money it raised. FBI agents recently visited a New Jersey man who complained that Santos had raised $3,000 for his terminally ill dog, but never delivered the cash or helped the sick animal.
In the e-mail, Bogosian said Santos was not aware of the cheques written to the dog breeders until after he was charged. Defending her friend, she also wrote that the signatures on the cheques differed from each other and from Santos’ own signature. Shortly after the cheques were written, Friends of Pets United held a puppy adoption event at a pet store in New York City, at which people paid hundreds of dollars for the animals.
