At least she 'fessed up. One of the escorts who claimed in a video that New Jersey Democrat Robert Menendez paid her for sex during a visit to the Dominican Republic has told police that it was all a lie. She said she was paid by a lawyer (whom she identified) and that she has never actually met or seen the senator before.

Menendez, meanwhile, has denied the prostitution claims, calling them "smears" used by his enemies to sabotage his recent reelection campaign and his selection as chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
