Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ) on Tuesday was convicted on a raft of federal charges in what prosecutors claimed was a coordinated yearslong bribery and conspiracy scheme. 

Menendez was charged on 16 federal counts including extortion, honest services wire fraud, obstruction of justice, acting as a foreign agent for Egypt, bribery, and conspiracy. He was found guilty on all 16 counts. The jury deliberated for more than 12 hours over the course of three days.
