Bob Menendez, 71, was found guilty on all 16 counts in his federal trial, becoming the first sitting member of Congress to be convicted of acting as a foreign agent.

Menendez was found guilty in a corruption case involving tens of thousands in cash and gold and charges of conspiring to work as a foreign agent.

Mr. Menendez, a powerful longtime senator from New Jersey, was convicted last year on federal bribery and corruption charges.
