As federal investigations swirled around Eric Adams over the past year, the New York City mayor stuck to a familiar script.
In one instance, an unidentified Adams staffer agreed to an interview with FBI agents.
In March 2019, an Adams staffer was exchanging text messages with the then-Brooklyn borough president about another possible trip to Turkey.
“To be o[n the] safe side Please Delete all messages you send me,” the staffer wrote Adams, according to the indictment.
Later that day, the Adams staffer visited the businessman at his office and said he had just met with the mayor.
