By Tom Hals and Luc Cohen - Three years ago, New Jersey Senator Bob Menendez announced that after months of COVID-19 turmoil, he had married Nadine Arslanian in a socially distanced ceremonyJann Arden in HRM helping Habitat for Humanity | SaltWire - Three years ago, New Jersey Senator Bob Menendez announced that after months of COVID-19 turmoil, he had married Nadine Arslanian in a socially distanced ceremony that he called a"lovely & joyous day we will never forget.
The senator said prosecutors had misrepresented the facts and mischaracterized routine legislative work. A lawyer for Arslanian, who also goes by Nadine Menendez, said she denied wrongdoing and would"vigorously defend" against the allegations in court. Soon after she met Menendez, Arslanian worked with businessman Wael Hana to introduce the senator, the powerful chairman of the U.S. Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, to Egyptian officials, the indictment said.
In return for Menendez's promise to help Egypt benefit from U.S. military sales, Hana rewarded Arslanian with a no-show job at his company and $23,000 to get her home out of foreclosure proceedings, the indictment said.
