The Department of Justice is investigating Bob Menendez, United States Senator of New Jersey and close Hillary Clinton associate, for claims that he engaged in illicit activities with underage girls in the Dominican Republic. As part of the same Department of Justice case, Menendez is currently undergoing investigation for assisting Salomon Melgen in procuring visas for Melgen's young sexual mistresses: http://archive.is/dnvP7
In a separate, but possibly related incident, one of Menendez's interns was an illegal immigrant and wanted sex offender: http://archive.is/2Lexd
Bob Menendez is the senior United States Senator from the State of New Jersey and a member of the Democratic Party. First appointed to the U.S. Senate in January 2006, he was later elected Chair of the United States Senate Committee on Foreign Relations in January 2013. In 2015, he was also ranked #1 on The Hudson Reporter's annual Power List of the "Fifty Most Powerful Political Figures in Hudson County".
On April 1, 2015, Menendez was officially indicted on federal corruption charges in the United States District Court, related to alleged favors he did for Florida ophthalmologist Salomon Melgen and gifts he received from him, including campaign donations and private flights. Melgen was charged as well. Menendez has pleaded not guilty to all charges: http://archive.is/2Lexd
"In further bad news for Menendez, the DOJ says the senator’s trip to the Dominican Republic was “during time frames in which one unidentified alleged minor victim specifically claimed to have had sex with him.”" http://archive.is/ZaiTS#selection-1833.0-1833.210
Furthermore, Bob Menendez has connections Hillary Clinton, Jeffrey Epstein, and even was trafficking children from the Dominican Republic during the same time period Laura Silsby was attempting to take children to the Dominican Republic without permits.

Great example that none of this is "fake news".
You're also doing a great job on the wiki from everything I've seen, thank you.

Actually this is false.
The Justice Dept is not investigating Menedez for sex with underage girls. In fact, they investigated the allegations and closed that part of the investigation. They have charged him with corruption. That is because the child-sex allegations which first appeared a week before the 2012 election in the Daily Caller were shown to the work of his political opponents who paid escorts to lie about him. Many news organizations passed on this story because they doubted the women's credibility including ABC News, the NY Times and even the NY Post.
Allegations that Sen. Robert Menendez (D-NJ), the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, had sex with prostitutes in the Dominican Republic were a lie, according to a young woman who signed an affidavit saying she was paid to make the false claims in the week before last year's elections.
Last fall, Republican operatives, who insisted on anonymity, helped arrange the woman's appearance, along with two additional women, in back-to-back, on-line interviews with ABC News and a conservative news website, the Daily Caller.
...
ABC News did not broadcast or initially report on the claims because of doubts about the women's veracity and identity.
The woman, who was not present when her affidavit was revealed at a press conference by an attorney in the Dominican Republic Monday, said her performance last year was arranged by a Dominican lawyer who had her rehearse statements and promised to pay her well.
Early Tuesday the Daily Caller said the woman who said she was lying was not one of the women featured in their original report. However, the attorney who presented the affidavit Monday identified the woman to reporters in attendance as the female wearing a yellow shirt in a video on the Daily Caller website.
"I never slept with Mr. Menendez nor Mr. Melgin," the woman, Nexis de los Santos Santana, said in her sworn statement, adding she did not know the Senator or the doctor.

It's hard to understand how you missed any of this if you are looking into Menedez. Wikipedia has this is in their section of "Federal Investigations" under his name.
It's been four years since the women admitted they were paid to lie. This isn't hidden or obscure.

You forget who runs the Dominican Republic now and how corrupt the police are.

You also seem to forget that your sources are "fake news" and shouldn't be trusted.

The one source of a fake story in this case was the daily caller. ABC the NY and the NJ peppers all passed on the story because the accusers didn't seem credible
