Former Sen. Bob Menendez pleaded not guilty to all of the charges against him and has vowed to appeal the conviction and sentence.

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

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.
