On Friday, Jury deliberations started in the Robert Menendez Corruption trial. Menendez is charged with using his power as a senator to lobby the Egyptian government’s interests in Congress. According to a report in CNN, prosecutors structured their presentation of the case in chapters calling different witnesses involved in Menendez’s various schemes. According to the report in The Hill, Menendez’s attorneys blamed his wife (who is also facing trial this fall on similar charges) for concealing her business doings from her husband. It is unclear how long the deliberations will take.
