"I can do my best to do whatever the law requires of me, so I don't know what that is. I've been out of prison for two days."
"I was in a chaotic ball of flame two years ago. I was my own worst enemy, and I'm sorry,"
"Life is too short. I have been granted a second chance. I have made a very, very concise decision to apply that for good and use that to make amends with my community,"
George Santos was released from prison after President Trump commuted his seven-year sentence for wire fraud and aggravated identity theft. Santos gave his first interview two days after release and said he would try to comply with legal requirements regarding restitution, while noting uncertainty because he had just been freed. The commutation absolves him from paying a $370,000 restitution order. Santos apologized, described his past as chaotic, said prison humbled him, recounted learning of his commutation from fellow inmates watching TV, and said he intends to use a second chance to make amends.
