Federal agents arrested two former Fire Department chiefs on Monday on bribery and corruption charges, sources with the U.S. Attorney’s Office of the Southern District of New York confirmed to amNewYork Metro.
Chief of Fire Prevention Anthony Saccavino and Chief Brian Cordasco, who worked at the Fire Prevention Bureau, were charged in connection with a long-running investigation out of the Southern District office. The indictment comes as Mayor Eric Adams’ administration is facing what appears to be four separate federal investigations, two of which burst into public view earlier this month.
