UPDATED: FBI Raids Home of Fundraiser for NYC Mayor Eric Adams

The home of Brianna Suggs, a top fundraiser for New York City Mayor Eric Adams, was raided on Thursday morning by federal agents.

According to neighbors, screams were heard coming from the home at about the time of the raid.

“I heard screaming maybe two or three hours ago,” a neighbor told the New York Post. According to the report in that paper, the neighbor also heard helicopters and said that the home is boarded up.

Suggs’ firm has earned more than $150,000 from the Adams campaign since 2021, the Post noted.

The New York Post reports that Suggs is a 25-year-old recent college graduate “on a meteoric rise in New York City’s Democratic politics.”

The paper reports that her youth and apparent relevant experience have raised questions about how she rose so quickly through the ranks of influence.

“Suggs has been touted as a key campaign consultant and fundraiser for Adams — but sources said the young operative’s lack of experience raised eyebrows during the 2021 mayoral race, with some attributing her apparently elevated status to her political connections,” the NY Post reported.

The raid on Suggs is part of a larger investigation, according to The New York Times.

The investigation “at the home of Eric Adams’s chief fund-raiser was part of an inquiry into whether foreign money was funneled into his mayoral campaign, a search warrant shows,” the Times said.

As part of what the Times termed a “broad public corruption investigation, federal agents are investigating whether the Adams campaign “conspired with the Turkish government to receive illegal foreign donations, according to a search warrant obtained by The New York Times.”
