Sen. Bob Menendez (D) - DOJ: Underage Prostitution Allegatio

[Newt]

quote:
The entire mainstream media bought repeated denials from Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ) of allegations that he solicited underage prostitutes in the Dominican Republic, but now the Department of Justice says the allegations are in fact “corroborated.”

In a 65-page court filing released publicly on Monday evening, the DOJ laid out how their investigation into Menendez—and Democratic Party mega-donor Dr. Salomon Melgen—“began with serious and specific allegations involving child prostitution.”

“Presented with that information, the Government, including experienced prosecutors from the Department of Justice’s Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section, took the only responsible course possible—it conducted an investigation,” page 10 of the document reads.

While those allegations have not resulted in any criminal charges, there can be no question that the Government has an obligation to take such allegations regarding potential harm to minors very seriously, regardless of who the alleged perpetrators may be. That is precisely what the Government did here, and there was nothing improper about it, despite the defendants’ palpable regret that the investigation ultimately led to the discovery of their corrupt relationship."

Immediately after he publicly denounces the Iran deal. Just coincidence I guess.

Now you know why Reid, Boehner, and McConnel all stay puckered up for Obama.
