Embattled GOP Rep. George Santos wore stolen clothing to an election rally which accused President Biden of stealing the 2020 presidential election, according to a former roommate.
Gregory Morey-Parker, who once lived with Santos in a Queens apartment, told Patch he was “100 percent” sure Santos was wearing his own Burberry scarf when the future Congressman attended a “Stop the Steal” rally at the Capitol on Jan. 5, 2021.
“They did to me what they did to Donald J. Trump, they stole my election,” Santos told the assembled crowd — referring to his 2020 loss to Rep. Tom Suozzi.
The scarf had been a gift to Morey-Parker by a friend and, like the one Santos donned, was “lighter than regular camel check.” Patch also published screenshots of a 2020 text between Morey-Parker and Yasser Rabello, another one-time roommate, discussing the stolen scarf and other clothes they say Santos swiped.
Both men had previously come forward to the local news website to allege Santos had pilfered phones, dress shirts, and checks from a checkbook.
