See how the Menendez trial jury decided on each count in the corruption trial
Sen. Robert Menendez was found guilty on all charges including bribery and extortion that were brought by federal prosecutors in the Southern District of New York.
Menendez, was initially charged in September 2023 alongside his wife, Nadine Arslanian Menendez, and three New Jersey businessmen, Wael Hana, Jose Uribe and Fred Daibes.
