Cash, gold bars, arms salesHow Bob Menendez met legal peril, again
"Eight months after his trial on federal corruption charges ended with a deadlocked jury, Sen. Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) had an important message for Egyptian leaders: He would sign off on nearly $100 million in arms sales.
He delivered that pledge in a July 2018 text to his then-girlfriend, Nadine Arslanian. The senator asked her to notify an Egyptian American businessman and friend of hers, Wael “Will” Hana, who would later supply the couple with gold bars and other valuable items, according to a three-count federal indictment accusing Menendez of taking hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes to exert his influence for the benefit of businessmen in New Jersey and the government in Cairo.
Arslanian forwarded the text message to Hana, who sent it along to two Egyptian officials, according to the indictment. One of the foreign officials replied simply with a “thumbs up” emoji."
