  • George Santos, the former Congressman, has filed a motion to delay his sentencing in a federal fraud case.
  • Current sentencing is set for February 7, with a request to postpone until August for more time to meet nearly $600,000 in financial obligations.
  • Santos's attorneys cited the launch of his new podcast, "Pants on Fire with George Santos," as a means to generate income for restitution.
  • Federal prosecutors have not commented, but the defense notes that the government opposes the delay.
  • Santos pleaded guilty to multiple charges, including campaign finance violations and embezzlement, and he faces a possible sentence of 75-87 months.
