The last time prosecutors charged Bob Menendez, the case ended in a mistrial. Six years later, the New Jersey Democrat is going to face the process again.
Six years later, it appears the New Jersey Democrat is going to face the process again. As NBC News“A press event will be held today at 11:00 a.m. to announce the unsealing of an indictment charging Robert Menendez, U.S. Senator from New Jersey, and his wife, Nadine Menendez, with bribery offenses in connection with their corrupt relationship with three New Jersey businessmen,” the DOJ said in a statement.
As NBC News’ report added, the federal investigation focused on whether the powerful Senate Foreign Relations chair and his wife Nadine Arslanian improperly took cash and gifts. Menendez has denied any wrongdoing. But as the dust settles on today’s dramatic news — it’s not every day when a sitting U.S. senator faces a federal criminal indictment — I find myself thinking about, of all things, Republican conspiracy theories.
