The charges remain classified and it is unclear what they involve, according to a September 25 New York Times report. Adams is expected to stand trial on Sept. 26, when the indictment will be declassified, revealing the full scope of the charges.<\/p>\n

In a statement<\/a><\/strong> to the New York Post, Adams vowed to fight the charges, saying:<\/p>\n

If I am charged, I am innocent and will fight with all my strength and spirit.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

He added that he has no intention of resigning, despite calls for him to step down from lawmakers including Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.<\/p>\n

The investigation stems from a November 2023 FBI probe in which agents raided the home of Adams’ chief fundraiser, Brianna Suggs, searching his electronic devices.<\/p>\n
