Picture this, folks.
A new lawsuit drops on the lap of New York City Mayor Eric Adams, alleging that back in his police days of the ’90s, he’s was playing a game of favors. No suprise there, right?
His accuser, Lorna Beach-Mathura, claims she’s been passed over for promotions that went to blacks and reached out to Mayor Eric for help.
Does try to help her?
No, instead he tries to take advantage of her vulenrability and demand sexual favors.
Looks like this Mayor’s got some explaining to do.
Plently of secrets seem to be coming to light lately.
Let’s see what becomes of this case.

Fox News reports:
A new lawsuit against New York City Mayor Eric Adams alleges that during his time on the police force in the ’90s he demanded sexual favors from a colleague in exchange for help with a job issue.
Adams’ accuser, Lorna Beach-Mathura, says she had been repeatedly passed over for promotions and experienced “resistance all-too-frequently faced by Black and female NYPD … employees in that era.” Adams at the time served as a leader in the Transit NYPD Guardians division, so she sought him out for his help.
“Instead of helping Plaintiff get fair treatment at the Defendant Transit Bureau, Defendant Adams preyed on her perceived vulnerability, demanding a quid pro quo sexual favor and sexually assaulting Plaintiff, revealing himself not to be the ‘Guardian’ he purported to be, but a predator,” the lawsuit states.
A lawyer for the New York City Corporation Counsel, Sylvia O. Hinds-Radix, called the allegations “ludicrous.”
“While we review the complaint, the mayor fully denies these outrageous allegations and the events described here; we expect full vindication in court. Additionally, in 1993, Eric Adams was one of the most prominent public opponents of the racism within the NYPD, which is why the suit’s allegations that he had any sway over promotions of civilian employees is ludicrous,” she said.
According to the lawsuit, Beach-Mathura learned in the fall of 2023 that New York had passed a law allowing survivors of sexual assault to come forward years after an attack and thus felt compelled to bring Adams’ “behavior to light.”
She alleges that Adams said he would help her with an employment problem but instead drove her alone to a vacant lot and requested oral sex from her, which she rejected. He continued to sexually assault her, according to the suit.
When Adams ran for mayor, Beach-Mathura said she found his comments on the campaign trail “hypocritical and sanctimonious.”

It’ll be interesting to see how Democrats react to all this.
They’re quick to come after Trump for the most outlandish accusations but seem to shrink back when it involves their own.
Also, in case you missed it, here’s a little gem where the mayor reveals his true feelings:
Racism is a key trait of the mayor of New York City. This guy is a big reason why NYC has degenerated into a crime infested shithole. https://t.co/0Xj1JmweBi
