Federal authorities have launched a criminal public corruption investigation into whether the 2021 election campaign of New York City Democrat Mayor Eric Adams conspired with a foreign government to receive illegal donations.

The New York Times obtained a copy of the search warrant that the FBI used when it raided the Brooklyn home of Adams’ top fund-raiser, Brianna Suggs. The investigation is focused on determining whether the campaign conspired with the Turkish government to receive illegal campaign contributions.

Investigators sought information about a local construction company with ties to Turkey and a university in Washington, D.C., with ties to Turkey and Adams, the report said.

The search warrant also indicated that authorities were looking at whether the campaign “kicked back benefits to the construction company’s officials and employees, and to Turkish officials,” the report added.
