Eric Adams Indictment: New York Mayor Charged in Campaign Contribution Scheme

September 26th, 2024

$100,000. What’s this actually about?

Via: CNBC:

A federal indictment charging New York City Mayor Eric Adams with a campaign contribution scheme, bribery and other crimes was unsealed Thursday morning, hours after FBI raided his Gracie Mansion residence and seized his phone.

The 57-page indictment accuses Adams of five criminal counts related to contributions to the Democrat’s 2021 mayoral campaign, and other conduct going back as far as 2014, when he was Brooklyn borough president.

Much of the indictment filed in U.S. District Court in Manhattan centers on the Turkish community, Turkish businessmen and a senior Turkish government official who allegedly exerted influence on Adams, who is accused of accepting well over $100,000 in foreign travel benefits and illegal campaign donations.
