Damian Williams, U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, held a news conference regarding an indictment of Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ) and his wife for bribery. The indictment alleges that between 2018 and 2022, Sen. Menendez, who is chair of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and his wife Nadine Menendez engaged in a corrupt relationship with three businesspersons. Sen. Menendez and his wife allegedly accepted hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes in exchange for the senator using his influence to protect and enrich the businesspersons and to benefit the government of Egypt. Previously, the senator was also indicted in 2015 on roughly a dozen charges, including bribery and conspiracy, following accusations he accepted gifts from a donor in exchange for political favors. That case ended in a mistrial after jurors were unable to reach a verdict. close
