NYC Mayor Eric Adams Faces April 21 Bribery Trial Over Turkish Consulate Case
Nov 1, 2024, 08:18 PM
New York City Mayor Eric Adams is scheduled to stand trial on federal corruption charges starting April 21, 2025, as set by Judge Dale Ho on Friday. The date was chosen after Adams requested a March trial and prosecutors sought May. Adams, who pleaded not guilty last month, faces five counts including bribery, wire fraud, and receiving donations from foreign nationals. The charges allege that he accepted bribes and illegal campaign contributions from Turkish nationals to ease construction of their consulate despite safety concerns. His motion to dismiss the bribery charge related to Turkey was denied, as was his request for a hearing on alleged leaks. The trial, coming amidst his anticipated re-election campaign with the Democratic primary in June 2025, could significantly impact his political future.
