Sen. Bob Menendez, a New Jersey Democrat, was convicted Tuesday on all counts in a federal bribery trial that involved three New Jersey businessmen and the governments of Egypt and Qatar. 

Menendez was charged with 16 counts in the 18-count indictment that alleged the longtime politician was engaged in a wide-ranging corruption scheme in which he promised to aid Egypt in various ways and tried to pressure a top Department of Agriculture official to protect a monopoly the country awarded to a halal certification startup owned by Wael Hana, who was on trial with the senator. 

He was also accused of disrupting criminal investigations by the New Jersey attorney general’s office into former insurance broker Jose Uribe, who pleaded guilty to trying to bribe Menendez by buying his wife, Nadine Menendez, a $60,000 Mercedes-Benz convertible. 

Menendez also tried to interfere in a federal prosecution of real estate developer Fred Daibes, a codefendant in the trial, while helping him land a lucrative investment deal with Qatar, according to prosecutors. 

Finally, prosecutors alleged, Menendez sought to conceal some of the bribe payments by characterizing them as loans. 

Menendez said he was “deeply disappointed” by the verdict and plans to appeal.  

Here is a look at each of the charges in the case:
