U.S. Senator Bob Menendez put his political power "up for sale" as he received bribes from different businessmen in exchange for advancing their interests, said a U.S. prosecutor as he wrapped up the arguments in his corruption trial.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Paul Monteleoni urged the jury at the New York City trial to vote for convicting Menendez after more than two months of presenting evidence regarding his actions, including photos showing gold bars and hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash found at his home.
