Prosecutors unveiled a five-count indictment of New York Mayor Eric Adams on corruption charges.

The 57-page indictment charges Adams with one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, federal program bribery, and to receive campaign contributions by foreign nationals; one count of wire fraud; two counts of solicitation of a contribution by a foreign national; and one count of bribery.

It alleges a 10-year pattern of corruption.

“In 2014, ERIC ADAMS, the defendant, became Brooklyn Borough President,” it reads. “Thereafter, for nearly a decade, ADAMS sought and accepted improper valuable benefits, such as luxury international travel, including from wealthy foreign businesspeople and at least one Turkish government official seeking to gain influence over him.”

Some of the charges are connected to contributions to Adams’s 2021 mayoral campaign, “including from wealthy foreign businesspeople and at least one Turkish government official seeking to gain influence over him.”
