5 Takeaways From the First Week of Robert Menendez’s Corruption Trial

A lawyer for the New Jersey senator pinned much of the blame on his wife. A government official explained halal meat certification.

• Share full article

By Maia Coleman ,  Tracey Tully and Benjamin Weiser

Senator Robert Menendez’s bribery trial got underway this week in a Manhattan courtroom eight months after he was first indicted on corruption charges. Jurors received a photographic tour of the New Jersey senator’s home, touched the gold bars at the heart of the case and heard a lawyer for Mr. Menendez pin much of the blame on the senator’s wife.

The government has brought a complicated set of accusations against Mr. Menendez, 70. He is charged with accepting cash, gold and other gifts in exchange for doing favors for the governments of Egypt and Qatar and for several allies in New Jersey.

But this week, prosecutors started simply. “This case is about a public official who put greed first,” said Lara Pomerantz, an assistant U.S. attorney. “A public official who put his own interests above his duty to the people. Who put his power up for sale.”

Two businessmen, Fred Daibes and Wael Hana, are on trial with Mr. Menendez, accused of plying him with bribes. The senator’s wife, Nadine Menendez, is also charged; her trial has been delayed. All four have pleaded not guilty.

Here are five takeaways from Mr. Menendez’s first week of trial:

Jurors get to hold one kilogram of gold.

The government’s first witness, Aristotelis Kougemitros, an F.B.I. special agent, took the stand on Thursday to testify about the gold, jewelry and cash seized during a June 2022 search of the Menendezes’ home in New Jersey, giving jurors their first look — and feel — at what prosecutors have called some of the “fruits” of the bribery scheme, including several gold bars.

But Mr. Menendez’s lawyers seemed to score a point when they got Agent Kougemitros to admit that part of his testimony was inaccurate. During a cross-examination of the agent, one of Mr. Menendez’s lawyers, Adam Fee, attempted to show that gold had not been recovered from rooms clearly utilized by the senator, echoing what is emerging as a defense strategy to pin blame on Ms. Menendez.

Mr. Fee focused on the location of a blue blazer containing Senate stationery that Agent Kougemitros said had been found inside a locked closet where gold was discovered. Mr. Fee displayed magnified photos that he said showed that the blazer was hanging not inside the closet but on an adjacent door outside.

“Do you want to change that testimony?” he asked the agent.

When trial resumed on Friday morning, Agent Kougemitros did: The blazer — and Senate papers — had not been inside the closet, he said.

Who Are Key Players in the Menendez Case?

Senator Robert Menendez, Democrat of New Jersey, and his wife, Nadine Menendez, are accused of taking part in a wide-ranging, international bribery scheme that lasted five years. Take a closer look at central figures related to the case.

A jury is seated.

Twelve jurors and six alternates were sworn in by Judge Sidney H. Stein on Wednesday, capping two and half days of jury selection that saw many would-be jurors giving unconventional excuses for why they could not serve. (One man described a fear of heights that would keep him from easily attending the trial in a 23rd-floor courtroom.)

The seated jury comprises six men and six women across a range of age groups and ethnicities. The jurors live in Manhattan, the Bronx and Westchester County, and several have advanced degrees.

The group includes a retired economist, an entertainment consultant and an investment banker, as well as four people who work in the health care industry. Their news media tastes skew toward traditional newspapers and mainstream outlets like The New York Times, CNN and NPR. Some rely on social media for their news, and one, on John Oliver’s satirical show.

Only about a third of the jurors live with spouses, while the others live alone or with immediate family members. The group is also big on exercise; among them are a marathon runner, a skier, a swimmer and a jogger.

Ms. Menendez has breast cancer.

On the first day of witness testimony on Thursday, Mr. Menendez, a Democrat, made big news that had nothing to do with the bribery charges that he and his wife are facing. Mr. Menendez’s Senate office released a statement — with a Jersey City, N.J., dateline — while he was in Federal District Court in Manhattan.

Ms. Menendez, he revealed, had breast cancer and was preparing to undergo a mastectomy. For the first time, it became clear that this was the reason that her trial had been postponed for at least two months.

But the timing of the disclosure punctuated an already remarkable first few days of trial. Notably, it came a day after another of Mr. Menendez’s lawyers, Avi Weitzman, had laid much of the blame for the bribery charges on Ms. Menendez, 57.

Defendants’ strategies emerge.

In pinning responsibility for the senator’s legal troubles on his wife, Mr. Weitzman told the jury that Ms. Menendez had hid her financial challenges from her husband. “She kept him in the dark on what she was asking others to give her,” Mr. Weitzman said. “She tried to get cash and assets any which way she could.”

Lawyers for the senator’s co-defendants, Mr. Hana and Mr. Daibes, both New Jersey businessmen accused in the bribery scheme, have emphasized their clients’ friendships with the couple and said the men were being unfairly prosecuted for their generosity.

Mr. Hana’s lawyer, Lawrence S. Lustberg, accused the government of taking “innocent, even good, positive acts, and trying to make them appear sinister and criminal.”

“It’s about criminalizing friendships,” Mr. Lustberg said.

Mr. Dabies’s lawyer, César de Castro, echoed that view, saying the evidence would show the case was about “deep and long-lasting friendships, not corrupt relationships.”

A halal meat monopoly takes center stage.

On Friday morning, a witness, Bret Tate, took the stand and spent hours taking jurors on a behind-the-scenes tour of halal meat slaughterhouses and the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s role in the global import-export market.

Mr. Tate’s testimony shifted the spotlight away from Mr. Menendez for the first time in days, and toward one of his co-defendants, Mr. Hana, a U.S. citizen who emigrated from Egypt in 2006. In 2019, the government of Egypt gave Mr. Hana’s business, IS EG Halal, a lucrative monopoly to certify that meat imported to the country had been prepared according to Islamic law. (Until then, four U.S. companies had divided the certification work.)

Mr. Tate, a foreign service officer who in 2019 was stationed at the U.S. Embassy in Egypt, explained that the U.S.D.A. opposed the monopoly, and that the sudden change increased the cost of meat certification and the price of meat for Egyptian consumers.

The monopoly made Mr. Hana a wealthy man and prosecutors say his business was used to funnel bribes to Mr. Menendez in exchange for the senator’s willingness to steer aid and weapons to Egypt.

Savvino-storozhevsky monastery and museum.

Zvenigorod's most famous sight is the Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery, which was founded in 1398 by the monk Savva from the Troitse-Sergieva Lavra, at the invitation and with the support of Prince Yury Dmitrievich of Zvenigorod. Savva was later canonised as St Sabbas (Savva) of Storozhev. The monastery late flourished under the reign of Tsar Alexis, who chose the monastery as his family church and often went on pilgrimage there and made lots of donations to it. Most of the monastery’s buildings date from this time. The monastery is heavily fortified with thick walls and six towers, the most impressive of which is the Krasny Tower which also serves as the eastern entrance. The monastery was closed in 1918 and only reopened in 1995. In 1998 Patriarch Alexius II took part in a service to return the relics of St Sabbas to the monastery. Today the monastery has the status of a stauropegic monastery, which is second in status to a lavra. In addition to being a working monastery, it also holds the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum.

Belfry and Neighbouring Churches

Located near the main entrance is the monastery's belfry which is perhaps the calling card of the monastery due to its uniqueness. It was built in the 1650s and the St Sergius of Radonezh’s Church was opened on the middle tier in the mid-17th century, although it was originally dedicated to the Trinity. The belfry's 35-tonne Great Bladgovestny Bell fell in 1941 and was only restored and returned in 2003. Attached to the belfry is a large refectory and the Transfiguration Church, both of which were built on the orders of Tsar Alexis in the 1650s.  

To the left of the belfry is another, smaller, refectory which is attached to the Trinity Gate-Church, which was also constructed in the 1650s on the orders of Tsar Alexis who made it his own family church. The church is elaborately decorated with colourful trims and underneath the archway is a beautiful 19th century fresco.

Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral

The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is the oldest building in the monastery and among the oldest buildings in the Moscow Region. It was built between 1404 and 1405 during the lifetime of St Sabbas and using the funds of Prince Yury of Zvenigorod. The white-stone cathedral is a standard four-pillar design with a single golden dome. After the death of St Sabbas he was interred in the cathedral and a new altar dedicated to him was added.

Under the reign of Tsar Alexis the cathedral was decorated with frescoes by Stepan Ryazanets, some of which remain today. Tsar Alexis also presented the cathedral with a five-tier iconostasis, the top row of icons have been preserved.

Tsaritsa's Chambers

The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is located between the Tsaritsa's Chambers of the left and the Palace of Tsar Alexis on the right. The Tsaritsa's Chambers were built in the mid-17th century for the wife of Tsar Alexey - Tsaritsa Maria Ilinichna Miloskavskaya. The design of the building is influenced by the ancient Russian architectural style. Is prettier than the Tsar's chambers opposite, being red in colour with elaborately decorated window frames and entrance.

At present the Tsaritsa's Chambers houses the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum. Among its displays is an accurate recreation of the interior of a noble lady's chambers including furniture, decorations and a decorated tiled oven, and an exhibition on the history of Zvenigorod and the monastery.

Palace of Tsar Alexis

The Palace of Tsar Alexis was built in the 1650s and is now one of the best surviving examples of non-religious architecture of that era. It was built especially for Tsar Alexis who often visited the monastery on religious pilgrimages. Its most striking feature is its pretty row of nine chimney spouts which resemble towers.
