Retried on corruption charges, former Israeli prime minister Ehud Olmert was found guilty on Monday of accepting bribes. It was the latest chapter in the downfall of a man who once hoped to lead the country to a historic peace agreement with the Palestinians.

Olmert, who already faces a six-year prison sentence in a separate bribery case, will be sentenced on May 5.
