I am Wolf Blizer for Anderson Cooper.Welcome to the podcast. Stunning 1 allegation against U.S. senator, but does theevidence support it? We're keeping them honest. Also, the stranger accused ofslapping a crying baby on board flied to Atlanta, and what his parents have tosay about it. Let's get started.
We begin with explosive allegations againstthe United States senator and kind of real in person on the ground reportingthat doesn't always get done in such cases, in other words keeping them honest.The senator is New Jersey 2 Democrat 3 Bob Menendez who chairs the powerful senateforeign relations committee. The allegations may by a shadowy tipster concerneda Florida eye doctor, a friend of the senator's, a major campaign contributorwho has been investigated Federal Authorities. The explosive part involves thiseye doctor alleged 4 role in the hooking the senator up with teenage prostitutesin the Dominican Republic. Extraordinary charges and they've out there formonth that deserve extraordinary evidence. The question tonight, where is it?
360's exclusive investigation 5 starts in theDominican Republic. Drew Griff is keeping them honest.
"A rundown brothel in Santo Dimingo ishardly the place for serious journalists and yet here we are knocking on its doorand finding yet another mysterious club leading to another close door. And thatmaybe exactly what the person or persons behind these emails had in mind. Couldit be one big slander 6 campaign aimed at baiting at scandal hungry press intosaying or printing the name of U.S Senator Bob Menendez, teenage prostitutionsand Caribbean sex parties all in one sentence. After all these allegations havebeen flatly refuted by the senator."
This is incredible. And now the senator's DominicanRepublic friends are trying to take that denial a step further demanding a fullinvestigation to the find the actual culprit who has been spreading Internetrumors for months.
This is an artificial ghost createdespecially in order to damage Senator Menedez Melgen and myself. VinicioCastillo, a fourth generation, Dominican attorney, himself has been named as aparty to the well parties, and says enough is enough.
This crime has damaged me and reputationand my honor and that's why I have the right to ask an investigation to findout who is behind this crime.
The email is alleging 7 teenage sex partiesand senator began circulating months ago, even the FBI got a hold of them. Butnothing could be confirmed. It appeared matter was pretty much dropped untilmore emails began arriving.
The author someone calling himself PeterWilliams even wrote to a CNN producer last month.
I dare to response only move by seriousnessof the media you represent, said the writer, since you can image I am deeplyconcerned about my security.
