Nassau DA opens investigation into Rep.-elect George Santos

MELVILLE, N.Y. — Anne Donnelly, the Republican district attorney for Nassau County, has opened an investigation into GOP Congressman-elect George Santos after he admitted to lying about his work experience and educational background.

Santos, 34, admitted Monday to fabricating key parts of his resume that he had announced on the campaign trail, including that he did not graduate from Baruch College, work for Citigroup or Goldman Sachs, or own any properties.

Santos' admission came one week after a New York Times report found holes in the record he touted during his campaign for New York's 3rd Congressional District.
