Jurors resume deliberations in Sen. Bob Menendez's bribery trial for third day

Washington — Jurors in New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez's bribery trial will meet for a third day Tuesday to deliberate the fate of the New Jersey Democrat, who is accused of accepting bribes from three New Jersey businessmen in exchange for using his political influence to their benefit. 

The jury began deliberations Friday afternoon and carried on through Monday without reaching a verdict. 

Leaving court Monday, Menendez, who has pleaded not guilty, said that "it is obvious the government's case is not as simple as they made it [out] to be."
