Eric Adams' right-hand man Frank Carone just got a surprise wake-up call
It seems the FBI had an early morning request for Frank Carone, the former chief of staff to NYC Mayor Eric Adams.
It looks like the FBI decided to skip the invitation and went straight for the early morning raid. Frank Carone, the guy who served as chief of staff to NYC Mayor Eric Adams, found his morning coffee interrupted by federal agents.
The whole thing involves an alleged bribery scheme that apparently kept investigators busy for three years. Carone didn't act alone, according to the feds; his brother Anthony Carone and a pair of hotel workers got invited to the party too. The defense attorney is already calling it a weak case built on thin air, but the Eastern District Court in New York seems to think otherwise.
Adams is busy offering prayers for the family, but the optics of his closest circle getting hauled off by the feds is, well, peak New York politics.
Nothing says professional success quite like an indictment before breakfast.
