A former NYPD aide has filed a lawsuit against New York City Mayor Eric Adams, accusing him of sexually assaulting her in 1993. The plaintiff alleges that Adams, who was working in the NYPD's transit division at the time, used his position to demand sexual acts in exchange for helping her secure a promotion she had been previously denied.

The lawsuit, filed in New York County Supreme Court under the state's Adult Survivors Act, claims that Adams propositioned the plaintiff while she worked as an administrative aide for the Transit Bureau. Despite passing promotional exams and being told she was next in line for a promotion, she was repeatedly passed over.
