Former Democratic New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez was sentenced to 11 years in prison Wednesday in relation to his federal corruption and bribery convictions.
Menendez was convicted on all counts over his bribery and corruption scheme with the Egyptian government and three New Jersey businessmen. The then-senator was indicted in March after authorities found over $480,000 in cash hidden throughout his home, over $100,000 in gold bars and a luxury vehicle purchased for his wife, Nadine, by the businessmen.
