text:  Federal prosecutors in New York rested their case after seven weeks of evidence that they say proves Senator Bob Menendez accepted bribes from three businessmen in exchange for political favors. The defense has maintained the gold belonged to Menendez's wife and that the senior senator kept cash in his home because of his family's traumatic memories from Cuba. Menendez has pleaded not guilty. His lawyers will suggest he did not know about his wife's business dealings. Brian Clark, ABC News.
