April 5 (UPI) -- Former Rep. George Santos, R-N.Y., is facing more than seven years in prison after federal prosecutors asked a judge to hand the disgraced congressman an 87-month sentence.

Santos deserves the prison sentence for "unparallelled crimes," the U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of New York wrote in a court filing earlier in the week.
