A look inside the indictment accusing New York City’s mayor of taking bribes

Associated Press  

NEW YORK — New York City Mayor Eric Adams has never been shy about his globetrotting ways. There’s the “Turkish Official,” a senior official in the Turkish diplomatic establishment said to have arranged Adams’ travel perks and facilitated straw donations to his campaign; “The Promoter,” a Turkish entrepreneur who prosecutors say organized events to introduce Adams to Turkish businesspeople; and the “Airline Manager,” a New York City-based general manager for Turkish Airlines who booked Adams’ free and heavily discounted flights and business class upgrades. ‘The Promoter’ Prosecutors said the person they identified as “The Promoter” concocted a plan — personally approved by Adams — to funnel up to $100,000 in banned campaign contributions to him through U.S. employees of a Turkish university, the indictment alleges. At one point, an Adams staffer tried to discourage the idea, saying Adams likely wouldn’t be interested in “such games” because it “might cause a big stink later on,” according to the indictment. ‘This is how things work in this country’ At one point, the indictment says, a construction company owner tried to recruit others in industry and the Turkish community to back Adams with campaign contributions and gifts, writing, in part, this “may feel like swimming against the current but unfortunately this is how things work in this country.” What does Adams’ lawyer say?
