Trump commutes Santos; Nassau DA declines comment

Former Rep. George Santos was released from prison after President Donald Trump commuted his federal sentence to time served, eliminating fines, restitution, probation, and supervised release, according to a clemency grant posted by the U.S. Pardon Attorney. Santos had served three months of an 87-month term imposed in April. In Nassau County, District Attorney Anne Donnelly praised her office’s work with federal prosecutors and said she remains focused on prosecuting political corruption, while declining to comment on any ongoing inquiries. Santos left custody Friday night and was picked up by family, his attorney said. The case remains developing.
