George Santos Prosecution Seeks 7+ Years Prison
Monitor for completion of sentencing and any appeals, but this represents system working as intended rather than constitutional threat.
This is a routine sentencing recommendation in an individual fraud case. While Santos was a congressman, this represents normal judicial accountability for personal criminal conduct, not systemic constitutional damage. A-score: rule_of_law gets 3 (judicial system functioning properly), corruption gets 2 (individual misconduct being addressed), election gets 1 (minor - he was elected fraudulently but removed). Mechanism modifier 1.3 for judicial action reinforcing norms. Total A=9.05. B-score: High media friendliness (8) and meme_ability (7) due to Santos's notorious fabrications, moderate outrage_bait (6), but low novelty (2) as this is expected conclusion. Layer 2 minimal as this is straightforward legal process. Total B=15.35. Classification: Noise - A-score well below 25 threshold, represents routine legal accountability not constitutional crisis, individual bad actor being processed through functioning system.
