The former campaign treasurer who helped shepherd scandal-plagued New York Congressman George Santos into office pleaded guilty today to federal felony charges in a Long Island courtroom.
Nancy Marks could face up to five years behind bars after admitting to conspiring with a congressional candidate to commit wire fraud, make false statements and commit identify theft, among other crimes.
She didn't speak to reporters after the hearing in Central Islip, New York.
Her former boss, George Santos, who won a first term in 2022 has announced he's seeking re-election. He faces 13 felony counts as part of the same federal inquiry that led to Marks' plea.
