GUILTY/NOT GUILTY?

In New Jersey Bob Menendez, US Senator has just escaped by the skin of his teeth and a Hung Jury.
The federal charges were bribery, fraud, conspiracy and perjury.  Serious charges for most of us.
Senator Bob is friends with an ophthalmologist, Solomon Melgen who was convicted in April of stealing from you and me by wrongfully billing Medicare more than 100 million dollars.  You want to know how Menendez is involved in this.  Well, it seems that Melgen bribed the good senator with private flights, vacations in the Caribbean and hundreds of thousands of dollars in political contributions.  Then, it seems, visas showed up for Melgen's girl friends and ole' Bob put in a good word with the State Department for Melgen's Dominican Republic Companies.  Just 'business as usual' in the "Swamp".......Medicineman!
