New Jersey veteran Richard Osthoff told CNN’s Don Lemon Thursday morning that he lost faith in humanity and even felt suicidal after congressman George Santos made off with $3,000 intended to provide lifesaving surgery for his service dog.
During an appearance on “CNN This Morning,” Osthoff and fellow Navy veteran Michael Boll discussed the fallout from the 2016 incident, which saw Santos set up a GoFundMe campaign and then suddenly go silent.
Asked what he would say to Santos if he were here now, Osthoff answered: “‘Do you have a heart? Do you have a soul?’ He probably would lie about that.”
