New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez’s wife toted a pricey Chanel purse to Manhattan federal court Wednesday as she and her embattled husband pleaded not guilty to pocketing bribes — including cash and $100,000 in gold bars. NY Post Senior Court Reporter Ben Kochman shares this story.

The veteran Democrat, 69, and his 56-year-old wife, Nadine, strolled out of the Lower Manhattan courthouse following their brief first hearing in the sweeping corruption case — with Menendez’s spouse getting slapped with stricter bail conditions.

Facing mounting calls from fellow Dems to resign, Menendez, wearing a dark pinstriped suit, sat with his hands tightly clasped in his lap as he was ordered released on a $100,000 bond.

Magistrate Judge Ona Wang ordered him to surrender any personal passports, but said the senator could still travel outside the US for official government purposes while his case is pending.

Meanwhile, his wife — who prosecutors allege played a key role in collecting hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes — was ordered to be released on a $250,000 bond secured by the couple’s Englewood Cliffs, NJ, home.
