Documents identify Rep. George Santos' father and aunt as the guarantors who secured his $500,000 bond in his criminal fraud case.
Santos' father and aunt were among three who paid, according to the bond documents.
Prior to today, Santos’ legal team argued that identifying them out would force those people to withdraw as bond supporters.
The Republican pleaded not guilty last month to money laundering and wire fraud charges.
