Anthony Herbert, a former senior official in former Mayor Eric Adams’ administration, pleaded not guilty Tuesday to federal charges accusing him of running multiple bribery, kickback, and fraud schemes while serving in City Hall.
Herbert, 61, of Brooklyn, was arraigned Jan. 13 in federal court in Manhattan after prosecutors unsealed an indictment charging him with using his position in the Mayor’s Office to enrich himself through pay-to-play arrangements and a fraudulent COVID-era loan application.
