Federal prosecutors have indicated that businessman Erden Arkan, implicated in Mayor Adams' illegal campaign contributions, is expected to plead guilty to wire fraud conspiracy.
The indictment against Mayor Eric Adams marked a historical event, making him the first sitting mayor of New York City to face criminal charges.
While it remains uncertain whether foreign money influenced Mr. Arkan's actions, it could limit his potential cooperation with prosecutors in the case against Mayor Adams.
Despite the lack of cooperation from Arkan, a lawyer for Adams expressed doubts about Arkan's usefulness in the prosecution, signaling challenges ahead for the case.
