Federal law enforcement officials executed search warrants at the homes of top aides to New York City Mayor Eric Adams, signaling a new criminal investigation unrelated to previous allegations involving the Turkish government.
Lisa Zornberg, City Hall lawyer, stated, 'Investigators have not indicated to us the mayor or his staff are targets of any investigation.' This suggests a degree of separation from the ongoing inquiries.
The Southern District of New York is conducting this new investigation focused on government corruption, complementing an existing investigation into Adams' ties to the Turkish government.
Last month, the New York Times reported that the probe into Adams' campaign's alleged links to the Turkish government includes the mayor himself, amidst claims of illegal contributions.
