By Ethan Stark-Miller Posted on September 20, 2024

A senior official charged with leading Mayor Eric Adams’ response to New York City’s ongoing migrant crisis became the latest to be hit with a subpoena by federal prosecutors on Friday, according to multiple published reports.

The reported subpoena is the latest revelation in a torrent of law enforcement actions around the Adams administration in recent weeks.
