A New Jersey veteran with a disability has come forward accusing Santos of stealing $3,000 from an online fundraiser created for the lifesaving surgery needed by the veteran’s service dog.
Intrater was one of Santos’ top political donors. At Santos’ behest, he invested hundreds of thousands of dollars with a firm where Santos worked. And even after this company was accused by the Securities and Exchange Commission of running a Ponzi scheme that threatened Intrater’s investment, Intrater and his domestic partner continued to pour money into Santos’ political campaign…. [Intrater] has told associates that he, like others, was conned by Santos.
It remains to be seen whether the controversy over Santos could become a catastrophic fissure for the GOP. But the signs certainly point in that direction.
