George Santos told a NYT reporter his niece was kidnapped by Chinese Communists, but an official said he 'made it up'
"Rep. George Santos recently told a New York Times reporter that his 5-year-old niece was kidnapped from a Queens, New York, playground. A "high-ranking" police official, however, told the publication that the incident was likely made up.
According to a recent New York Times piece, Santos dialed up reporter Grace Ashford (who penned the initial Santos exposé) for the first time in September 2023. Several other one-on-one calls reportedly occurred between the two in the weeks after, where at one point, Santos said that he and his husband have "had to defend ourselves" after they began receiving threats post-publication.
Along with mentioning one previously reported incident where someone phoned him to say they were going to bash his head in with a bat, he alleged he's also received a different kind of threat: he said his niece was at a playground before suddenly disappearing, only to be found 40 minutes later via security footage alongside two Chinese men."
