TL;DR

Federal prosecutors charged Frank Carone, a chief of staff to former NYC Mayor Eric Adams, and three associates with accepting bribes to steer a migrants’ shelter contract to a Queens hotel. The indictment alleges bribes, wire fraud, and money laundering, including a plan to fabricate evidence to masquerade bribe payments as a loan. Carone and others pleaded not guilty and were released on bail; prosecutors say Carone totalled about $120,000 in payments tied to the contract.
