During a court hearing, prosecutors indicated that additional charges against New York Mayor Eric Adams are “possible,” and more defendants are “likely” to be added.

Adams, who has pleaded not guilty to charges of soliciting and accepting illegal foreign contributions, is accused of tampering with witnesses and creating false records to cover up bribes.

The investigation, which began before he became mayor, unearthed evidence linked to Turkish Airlines flights, ABC 7 has reported.

Adams maintains his innocence, while his lawyer aims for a speedy trial in March to resolve the case before his reelection campaign.
