Former Congressman George Santos, sentenced to 87 months for fraud, has publicly requested a pardon from former President Trump. In a tearful interview with Piers Morgan, he expressed his initial reluctance to seek clemency but changed his mind following his sentencing. Santos emphasized his belief that his punishment is excessively harsh for a first-time offender. Additionally, he voiced concerns about his safety in prison, asking for protective custody to avoid potential harm. Santos highlighted a perception of a 'weaponized Justice Department' in his plea to Trump.
I don't want this to seem like a political pitch, I want it to be a fair pitch, and I think no one better than President Trump to know what a weaponized Justice Department looks like.
I'm not fearful of dying in there, I'm more fearful of being severely brutalized and harmed, if you get my drift.
