The New Jersey Democrat is set to appear before a federal judge Wednesday morning in New York City alongside his wife, Nadine, who was also charged.
Menendez has acknowledged the charges are “salacious,” but he predicted he would ultimately be exonerated.
The indictment alleges the couple also received “gold bars, payments toward a home mortgage, compensation for a low-or-no-show job, a luxury vehicle and other items of value,” such as jewelry and exercise equipment.
