A federal jury in Manhattan found Sen. Robert Menendez guilty of accepting bribes to benefit businessmen in New Jersey, as well as the governments of Egypt and Qatar... He had pleaded not guilty to 16 criminal counts, including bribery, obstruction of justice, acting as a foreign agent, and honest services wire fraud.
Prosecutors accused her [Menendez's wife, Nadine] of acting as a go-between with the businessmen in order to shield her husband. The two-month trial was marked by colorful testimony and exhibits.
