In an extraordinary operation, federal agents descended upon the mayor’s home early Thursday morning.
As news spread that Mayor Eric Adams has been indicted on federal charges, federal agents arrived to search New York City's Gracie Mansion, the official residence of the mayor, on Thursday.
NPR and member station reporters are reading through court records to gather the full context of the accusations against Adams and will continue to update this story. “By smuggling their contributions to ADAMS through U.S.-based straw donors, ADAMS's overseas contributors defeated federal laws that serve to prevent foreign influence on U.S. elections,” the indictment alleges.
"But what was unusual and really raised people's eyebrows, was when federal agents also seized the mayor's phones,” Kim said. “That's when the political observers started thinking that this is rather serious, because that was pretty much unprecedented in New York."
