    Former U.S. Senator Bob Menendez, 71, was sentenced to 11 years in prison on Wednesday after being convicted on corruption and bribery charges in 2024. Menendez, nicknamed 'Gold Bar Bob,' was found guilty of accepting bribes totaling nearly $1 million in cash, checks, gold bars, and a luxury car in exchange for abusing the power of his office to benefit Egypt and New Jersey businessmen. The charges included acting as a foreign agent for Egypt, extortion, conspiracy, obstruction, and corruption, marking a first-of-its-kind conviction. In court, a tearful Menendez delivered a 12-minute speech, pleading for leniency. The sentencing is the longest prison term ever handed down to a U.S. Senator and concludes the once-powerful Democrat's political career.
