Nadine Menendez is set to face bribery charges in court, with jury selection beginning soon. She will be tried separately from her husband, former U.S. Senator Bob Menendez, who was recently convicted on bribery charges and sentenced to 11 years in prison. The couple is accused of accepting valuable gifts, including gold and a Mercedes-Benz, in exchange for political influence. Nadine, who has pleaded not guilty, is under pressure to go to trial shortly after surgery for breast cancer, a circumstance her husband highlighted in a social media post calling for a delay in proceedings.
Menendez expressed deep concern for the rapid timeline of his wife’s trial, stressing that she just underwent reconstructive surgery and should be allowed to recover fully before facing any legal proceedings.
Both Nadine Menendez and her husband face severe allegations, including accepting valuable gifts like gold bars and luxury cars in exchange for political favors. Nadine has pleaded not guilty.
