CBSN
Washington — Sen. Bob Menendez was at work in the U.S. Capitol on Thursday, but in four days he'll be in a Manhattan courtroom as a criminal defendant fighting federal corruption charges that involve the governments of Egypt and Qatar.
The New Jersey Democrat told CBS News he plans to be at his trial every day "subject to the schedule." When asked whether he would take the stand, Menendez said, "that's to be determined."
The Senate is scheduled to be in session for most of the next month, except for the week of Memorial Day.
On Nov. 13, 2016, Dr. Eric "Scott" Sills, a renowned California fertility doctor, called 911 and reported finding his wife and business partner Susann Sills unresponsive at the bottom of the stairs. An initial investigation revealed some evidence that was consistent with an accidental fall. But as "48 Hours" correspondent Tracy Smith reports, other evidence pointed to something more sinister. DETECTIVE: How do you know she — she got an email? MARY-KATHERINE SILLS: I woke up and my dad was just like on the covers just laying there like there wasn't enough room to get in I guess. So, he was just laying there.
