Is there a gofundme to get him ‘tuned up’ a little bit while he’s in there?

I hope this is the beginning of a pattern resulting in all grifters ending in jail … ending with the big one
Ending? Let’s start with that one!
The thing is that you really have to screw over powerful people in order to face consequences as a powerful person. Turnip is definitely stepping on some feet these days though so maybe?
we can only hope so …
If Obi-Wan taught us anything, is that there’s always a bigger fish … it just sucks that the bigger fish it’s Rupert Murdoch and not the SCOTUS
Just the self-hating gay ones
7 years is an awfully short time for all the crimes Santos committed (if that’s even his real name). We put people in longer for non-violent drug offences.
It is called a two-tiered justice system for a reason.
Hold up a convenience store and get away with a couple hundreds dollars? 10 years hard time.
Trick thousands of elders into giving you their retirement for a ponzi scheme totalling over twenty million? 5 years with 4 and a half years suspended and then time served. Oh yeah and pay back a quarter of what you stole. That will teach you!
Ponzi schemes are fine unless you steal from rich people. Just look at Enron and FTX. Steal from poor people? Totally fine.
Still better than what famous people and priests get for fucking kids.
It’s disgraceful how they did my boy Santos. How dare they convict a former astronaut and Basketball/Baseball MVP!

It is just so upsetting how little respect the son of esteemed president Abraham Lincoln is given…
–this guy," Luckman was saying, manicuring a box full of grass, hunched over it as Arctor sat across from him, more or less watching, “appeared on TV claiming to be a world-famous impostor. He had posed at one time or another, he told the interviewer, as a great surgeon at Johns Hopkins Medical College, a theoretical submolecular highvelocity particle-research physicist on a federal grant at Harvard, as a Finnish novelist who’d won the Nobel Prize in literature, as a deposed president of Argentina married to–”
“And he got away with all that?” Arctor asked. “He never got caught?”
“The guy never posed as any of those. He never posed as anything but a worldfamous impostor. That came out later in the L.A. Times–they checked up. The guy pushed a broom at Disneyland, or had until he read this autobiography about this worldfamous impostor–there really was one–and he said, ‘Hell, I can pose as all those exotic dudes and get away with it like he did,’ and then he decided, ‘Hell, why do that; I’ll just pose as another impostor.’ He made a lot of bread that way, the Times said. Almost as much as the real world-famous impostor. And he said it was a lot easier.”

That’s what the Catch Me if You Can guy did. Apparently he never did any of the cons he claimed.
Really so the movie was all lies?
Yup. He came out and admitted it after the movie.
Well I’m not shocked that another based on true story is all bullshit.
I’m so lazy that even claiming I’m a world famous imposter is too much effort.
I’m the one who posed as the poser and I’m here tot elk you it’s super easy.
Disgraced? This sounds like this should put him on top of his political game?
Awe. 🫢
Anyway.
Aw*
Good news is good news!
Consequences
Is he still going to cameo from jail?
Isn’t he just gonna claim that was someone else they put in prison?
Did he rape kids?
The fuck does that matter? Are you particularly interested in kid rape? Not sure why you’d want to shift the subject matter off federal fraud… should these charges not matter, unless the kiddy rape sizzle is on top?
Jesus. You really missed he point. Here, since you and others seem to be light thinkers: here’s an insignificant cunt who’s going to jail for crimes far less severe than those committed by the fucking president.
Don’t punish anyone is your go-to at the moment? Sounds spicy.
Moron take but ok.
I agree, it is a moronic take. But you do you, brother.
All three of you are morons.
I agree, all three of you are moroons!
