Agents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation on Thursday searched the Brooklyn home of Mayor Eric Adams's chief fund-raiser, Brianna Suggs, a campaign consultant who is deeply entwined with efforts to advance the mayor's agenda, according to two people with knowledge of the matter.

 

The raid apparently prompted Mr. Adams to abruptly cancel several meetings scheduled for Thursday morning in Washington, D.C., to talk to White House officials and members of Congress about the influx of migrants in New York and other major cities. Instead, he hurriedly returned to New York "to deal with a matter," a spokesman for the mayor said.

 

Ms. Suggs, who could not immediately be reached for comment, is an essential cog in Mr. Adams's fund-raising machine, which has already raised more than $2.5 million for his 2025 re-election campaign.

 

A third person with knowledge of the raid said agents from one of the public corruption squads in the F.B.I.'s New York office questioned Ms. Suggs during the search of her home.

 

An F.B.I. spokesman confirmed that "we are at that location carrying out law enforcement action," referring to Ms. Suggs's home in the Crown Heights section of Brooklyn.

Mayor Eric Adams warned of "extremely painful" budget cuts to offset hundreds of millions of dollars in cost from sheltering and providing services for migrants.

"If the circumstances don't change dramatically, city agencies will be forced to reduce city funded spending by 5% two more times within the next six months," he said. "That will mean disruptions to the services we all rely on."

Summons accuses Adams of sexual assault and employment discrimination in 1993 while he and plaintiff worked for the city

 

Quote

 

The mayor of New York City, Eric Adams, has been accused of sexual assault in a court filing submitted on late Wednesday.

 

The summons against Adams alleges that the plaintiff “was sexually assaulted by Defendant Eric Adams in New York, New York in 1993 while they both worked for the City of New York”.

 

It was filed under the Adult Survivors Act, a New York state law which provided a one-year “look-back” window for adult sexual misconduct accusers to file civil lawsuits that previously would have been barred due to the statute of limitations.

 

The window expires on 24 November.

 

The summons adds that the accusations concerns “sexual assault, battery and employment discrimination on the basis of Plaintiff’s gender and sex, retaliation, hostile work environment and intentional infliction of emotional distress”.

 

Asked about the allegation, a city hall spokesperson said: “The mayor does not know who this person is. If they ever met, he doesn’t recall it.”

 

The accuser’s attorney, Megan Goddard, said: “Goddard Law is thankful for the Adult Survivors Act, which has given so many women the opportunity to seek justice. We are immensely proud of our clients and all the women who are seeking justice under the ASA. We are also thankful that the legislature may be considering reopening the window because so many victims of sexual assault are only finding out about the ASA now.”
