Ex-Long Island Rep. George Santos released from NJ prison hours after Trump commuted 7-year sentence | 18 Oct 2025 | Disgraced former Rep. George Santos (R-NY) walked out of prison a free man Friday hours after President Trump commuted his 87-month prison sentence for wire fraud and aggravated identity theft. Santos, 37, had served less than three months — a total of 84 days — of the sentence handed down by a federal judge in April when he was released from FCI Fairton, a medium security prison in Fairfield Township, NJ, at around 11 p.m., his lawyer Joseph Murray told The Post. “God bless President Donald J Trump the greatest President in U.S. history!” Murray wrote in a note posted on Santos’s X account late Friday night… Santos’s lawyer also thanked Greene, noting she “fought like a lion on George’s behalf,” as well as Reps. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.), Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.), former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) and several Trump administration officials.
