Senator Bob Menendez and Wife Indicted on Charges of Bribery and Corruption

Sen. Bob Menendez and his wife Nadine have been indicted by a federal grand jury on charges of bribery and corruption, including providing sensitive U.S. government information and pressuring an official at the Agriculture Department. The couple is accused of receiving cash, gold bars, payments toward a home mortgage, and other items of value in exchange for Menendez using his influence as a U.S. senator. It is unclear if Menendez will face any further legal action or if the couple will face any jail time if convicted.
