Law enforcement has uncovered “additional criminal conduct” by Mayor Eric Adams, the U.S. attorney’s office for the Southern District of New York said in a new court filing.

Prosecutors didn’t specify what that conduct was. But in a memo filed on Monday night, they said officials have uncovered more crimes and more people who allegedly helped the mayor to carry them out. The U.S. attorney’s office filed the memo in response to the mayor’s request for more information about the evidence in his criminal case.

The memo provides new details about the large swath of materials prosecutors have gathered during their investigation, including financial records, messages between alleged co-conspirators and documents from Turkish Airlines.

Prosecutors said they have also gathered records from Adams’ 2021 and 2025 mayoral campaigns. So far, Adams has only been charged with misconduct in relation to the first race.
