Santos just made up his personal "donations" to his campaign, to get RNCC funding

10. I love how Marks is trying to blame him & play the victim. She's been around the block a time or two

From the NYT:

But while the kind of egregious irregularities in Mr. Santos’s reports do not appear in other campaigns she worked on, The Times found that Ms. Marks’s accounting and business practices repeatedly drew suspicion. Former clients have taken her to court, saying she overpaid herself or failed to pay bills, as have a long line of creditors. Her close business ties with a felon alienated some onetime allies.

And in at least two previously unreported instances, her actions have attracted scrutiny from the U.S. attorney’s office for New York’s Eastern District, according to several people with direct knowledge of the inquiries. In one, prosecutors investigated allegations that Ms. Marks attempted to help broker the sale of a ballot line; in another, authorities scrutinized whether she had embezzled money from clients. She was never charged.

...

“There are very fundamental errors that no accountant of her experience would make,” said Brett G. Kappel, an elections lawyer who advises both political parties. “If she submitted these knowing they contained false information, there are going to be consequences.”
