Sexual Assault Allegations Resurface Against NYC Mayor Eric Adams

New York City Mayor Eric Adams has been accused of sexual assault in a court filing submitted under the Adult Survivors Act, a New York state law that allows adult sexual misconduct accusers to file civil lawsuits within a one-year "look-back" window. The summons alleges that the assault occurred in 1993 while both Adams and the plaintiff worked for the City of New York. Adams denies the claim and says he does not recall ever meeting the accuser. The FBI is also reportedly investigating Adams' campaign for potential unlawful acceptance of money from the Turkish government.
