Mayor Adams enters Manhattan federal court, surrenders to feds ahead of noon arraignment

Mayor Eric Adams put on a brave face as he entered Manhattan federal court on Friday morning, surrendering to federal authorities ahead of his arraignment on historic corruption charges scheduled for noon.

The mayor appeared stoic but dour as he walked from his black Chevy Suburban SUV, flanked by his security detail, into the Southern District of New York courthouse at 8:48 a.m. on Sept. 27. He did not say anything as he walked by crowds of reporters on both sides, but flashed his characteristic thumbs up for the cameras.
