In a superseding indictment, prosecutors alleged Menendez “provided sensitive U.S. government information and took other steps that secretly aided the government of Egypt."
They charged him with additional counts including violating the Foreign Agents Registration Act, which requires agents of foreign governments to register their work in the United States. Prosecutors maintain Menendez was fully aware of the laws, noting that in his time as a senator, he “made multiple requests for the U.S. Department of Justice to commence an investigation against another person for allegedly failing to register” under those laws.Who is Bob Menendez’s wife, Nadine? Who else was charged in the indictment?
Among the steps the senator is accused of taking on their behalf, prosecutors say he ghostwrote a letter to fellow senators encouraging them to lift a hold on $300 million in aid to Egypt and leaking a list of employees at the U.S. Embassy in Egypt — information that while not classified, is considered highly sensitive.
