The federal bribery and corruption case against Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ) is now in the hands of a New York jury that will determine if the sitting senator traded his power and prestige to the highest bidder. 

Menendez, once the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, was indicted on 16 counts, including bribery, honest services wire fraud, extortion, obstruction of justice, acting as an agent for Egypt, and conspiracy. If convicted, he could spend up to 20 years in prison.
