"Sexual Assault Allegations Resurface Against NYC Mayor Eric Adams"

New York City Mayor Eric Adams has been accused of sexual assault in court papers filed under the state's Adult Survivors Act. The plaintiff alleges that the assault occurred in 1993 while they both worked for the City of New York. Adams denies the claims and says he does not recall meeting his accuser. The summons seeks $5 million in damages. This is the latest legal challenge for Adams, who is also under investigation for the financing of his 2021 mayoral campaign.
