on Tuesday of engaging in "wildly abnormal" behavior in response to bribes during a closing argument at the Democrat's New York City corruption trial.
Menendez is on trial with two of the businessmen - Wael Hana and Fred Daibes. Hana, who prosecutors say enlisted Menendez to help him gain and protect a monopoly on the certification of meat exported from the U.S. to Egypt, and Daibes, an influential real estate developer, have also both pleaded not guilty. A third businessman pleaded guilty and testified at the trial.
The encounters with Grewal were cited by Monteleoni as examples of things Menendez did that the prosecutor said "were wildly abnormal."
