NJ businessman in Menendez case pleads guilty, cooperates with authorities

A New Jersey entrepreneur, indicted alongside Democratic Senator Bob Menendez, has entered a guilty plea in connection to the bribery scheme and is now collaborating with federal prosecutors in the ongoing investigation.

Jose Uribe, one of the individuals implicated in the corruption case along with the senator, his wife Nadine Menendez, and two other business associates, is the first to admit guilt and the initial insider to commit to assisting prosecutors.

This development increases the pressure on Senator Menendez, who vehemently denies any wrongdoing, particularly as it unfolds just two months before his scheduled trial in May.

Uribe, by waiving his indictment, pleaded guilty to seven counts on Friday, as documented in court records and a superseding information filing.

As part of the plea agreement, Uribe has undertaken to testify during the trial and cooperate with law enforcement, as outlined in the deal signed on Friday, CNN reported.
