The charges, returned by a grand jury in #Manhattan, come just 2 months before Mr. Menendez, Ms. Menendez & 2 New Jersey businessmen are scheduled for #trial.
All 4 defendants had pleaded not guilty to the earlier charges & are expected to appear for an arraignment on the new charges soon.
The #indictment comes just days after a 5th defendant, Jose Uribe, a New Jersey businessman, pleaded #guilty to 7 counts, including #obstruction of justice & #conspiracy to commit #bribery, & agreed to cooperate w/the government’s investigation.
