Senator Robert Menendez was accused of receiving bribes for influencing and promoting a friend’s business company. When in office, Senator Menendez received lavish gifts, fully sponsored vacations, and a handsome amount of $750,000 in the name of his campaign funds. The prosecutors also accused Senator Robert of using his office and government position for offering support to his friend, Salomon Melgen.

However, senator Menendez rejected all allegations stated against him and defended himself throughout the trial. Later, the Federal court also conducted a hearing of Salomon Melgen, where he was accused of bribing a government representative for his financial gains.
