Adams' Top Fundraiser Suggs Leaves Role Following FBI Raid
Suggs transitions to a new role amid investigation into potential illegal foreign campaign contributions.
- New York City Mayor Eric Adams' top campaign fundraiser, Brianna Suggs, is no longer working in that position following an FBI raid on her home.
- Suggs' home was searched as part of an investigation into a possible scheme to shift money from the Turkish government to the mayor's campaign through a Brooklyn building company.
- Suggs has moved to a different unspecified role on the reelection campaign team and has hired her own lawyer.
- Adams has previously expressed his full confidence in Suggs and his desire for her to stay on the team.
- The investigation is also examining potential illegal foreign campaign contributions from the Turkish government and whether Adams pressured Fire Department officials to approve a new high-rise Turkish consulate despite safety concerns.
