They claimed Menendez agreed to pay them $500 for sex acts, but in the end received only $100. When shown a photo of Menendez, both recognized him. The women spoke through a translator in the company of their attorney, Melanio Figueroa. Their identities remain obscured for fear of reprisals in the D.R.

Menendez. “He called him[self] ‘Bob,’” said one. One woman said Menendez wooed her with compliments like “beautiful” before they slept together. The other woman recounted being shafted … regarding payment, that is. “He lies,” she said of Menendez. “He says one thing and does another.” According to the translator’s summary, Menendez “was nice at first, but then later he did not seem to care about her.” Menendez, 58 and divorced, has represented New Jersey in the U.S. Senate since being appointed to fill a vacancy in 2005. He is up for re-election Tuesday. Asked about the allegations, Menendez spokeswoman Tricia Enright refused to answer: “We’re not going to respond to a completely false accusation,” she wrote by email.
