Menendez Bribery Defense May Lean on ‘Subtle’ Pitch to NJ AG

Arlo Devlin-Brown’s commentary was included in a Bloomberg News article covering the federal indictment of U.S. Senator Bob Menendez. The article considers how testimony by Gurbir Grewal, the attorney general of New Jersey during the events in question, could aid Menendez’s defense.

Arlo observed that if Grewal testifies, “the defense has compelling arguments that the interactions that the senator had with Grewal are not ‘official acts’ in the way that the law required.”
