Robert Menendez, a former United States senator representing New Jersey, has been handed an 11-year prison sentence for bribery schemes that included receiving gold bars in exchange for favours on behalf of Egypt.
In a tearful address to the court before being sentenced, Menendez said he was "chastened" by the verdict, and asked that his decades as a federal and local elected official weigh in favor of leniency.

See my post 18......apparently she’s well enough to standctrial.
“he has other information on corruption and would be willing to testify for a reduced sentence.”
Now that our team has control over the Justice Department this could be outstanding news.
He better sing like a canary—everything he knows. It could be the difference between spending time at a country club prison like Danbury, CT or a nasty place where he can count cockroaches.
“The judge ordered Menendez to begin his prison term on June 6, allowing him to attend his wife Nadine Menendez’s corruption trial starting in March.”
but, there might be room for negotiation under trump. talk to us bob.
I wonder if he knows enough other stuff to get witness protection for him and his wife?
Hey he’s just doing what Jersey politicians do!
After all it’s the Sopranos State!
Surprised Joe Biden forgot to pardon him. Hear the Biden’s and Obama don’t like each other. Hear Obama headed to divorce court too.
This would be too rich. Obama got where is is by winning elections after he got a judge to unseal divorce records from his opponents and used the records to smear the guy. He did it to get into the state senate and then again to get into the US senate.
If they are going to go after him then go after them ALL. All of them are guilty of ILLEGALITIES. NONE of them are ABOVE THE LAW.
His last sentences in the press conference after the court session: President Trump is right!
The real question is, what did he do to get on the wrong side of the Biden regime and Democrat party?
