New Eric Adams
Corruption Case Book Covers
Trump and UN Turkish Bribes in
City of Maybe
FOLEY
SQUARE, Nov 29 – With
NYC Mayor Eric Adams asking a
judge to move his corruption
trial up to April Fools Day
2025 in order to run for
re-election, on November 29 a
new book was published about
the case, "US v. Eric Adams:
City of Maybe," book and
audiobook on Amazon here.
Inner City Press reporter
Matthew Russell Lee covered
Adams' speech at the U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
in May 2022 - then his
arraignment on Turkish bribery
and straw donor charges in
2024. He live tweeted and
included the motion to dismiss
proceedings and some
reflections of his character
Kurt Wheelock, previously reviewed
in New York magazine.
The book
begins: "It was May 24, 2022
in a garden next to the SDNY
Federal courthouse. Eric Adams
stood at the podium and said,
"I turned pain into
purpose."
The
question, to some, was to what
purpose?
Two and a
half years later, he
proclaimed his innocence and
asked to move his trial up to
April Fool's Day 2025, saying
anything later would hurt his
chances to run for
re-election.
Already,
more and more candidates
declared to run against him.
How would the court case play
out? Would it be decisive or,
like those of Trump, be
superseded, delayed, or even
dropped? By Trump? Inner City
Press is covering all these
cases in SDNY, and corruption
in the UN including Turkey's
Mission before that. This is
the story, City of Maybe, Part
I."
Audiobook and
paperback coming.
