BREAKING: Senator Robert Menendez may blame his wife, Nadine Menendez, for pulling the couple into what prosecutors have said was a criminal conspiracy and may claim that she hid information from him, leading him to believe that “nothing unlawful was taking place,” according to court papers unsealed on Tuesday.
The revelation was contained in two sentences in a legal brief filed by Mr. Menendez’s lawyers, who had asked a judge to keep them secret because they detailed a trial strategy that if made public would “surely garner significant media attention” and “bias the jury pool.”
