NEW YORK (AP) — Prosecutors rested on Friday after presenting evidence for seven weeks at the bribery trial of Sen. Bob Menendez, enabling the Democrat and two New Jersey businessmen to begin calling their own witnesses next week to support defense claims that no crimes were committed and no bribes were paid.

Before resting, prosecutors elicited details about the senator’s financial records by questioning an FBI forensic accountant.
