Sen. Bob Menendez Found Guilty on All 16 Counts in Federal Bribery Trial
Jul 16, 2024, 05:00 PM
Senator Bob Menendez, a powerful Democrat from New Jersey, has been found guilty on all 16 counts in his federal corruption trial. The charges include bribery, extortion, conspiracy, obstruction of justice, and acting as a foreign agent for Egypt. Menendez and his wife, Nadine Menendez, were accused of accepting bribes in the form of gold bars, cash, a Mercedes-Benz, and other luxury items in exchange for political favors. The FBI seized 13 gold bars and nearly $500,000 in cash from Menendez's home. Co-defendants Fred Daibes and Wael Hana were also found guilty. Menendez faces up to 222 years in prison if sentences are served consecutively. This conviction marks a significant downfall for Menendez, who has been a prominent figure in New Jersey politics.
