The Menendez Corruption Trial Begins.

This week, the corruption trial of Robert Menendez begins. According to a report in the AP, Menendez and his wife were arrested on bribery and corruption charges over accepting bribes from three business people, including one from Egypt.  Menendez’s lawyer will claim in court that his wife was the driving force behind the bribery schemes, and he knew nothing about it. Menendez’s wife Nadine’s trial will not start until July at the earliest due to a health issue. It is unclear how the trial will play out, but whatever its outcome will ruin his reputation forever.
