  • Prosecutors and the F.B.I. are examining an organization founded by the Rev. Alfred Cockfield II, according to people with knowledge of the matter.

The article from The New York Times, published on November 26, 2024, discusses a federal investigation into New York City Mayor Eric Adams' campaign finances. The investigation centers on allegations that Adams' campaign may have received illegal foreign donations, specifically from a construction company owned by Turkish nationals. The FBI raided the home of Adams' chief fundraiser, Brianna Suggs, and seized electronic devices.
