A former police administrative aide has filed a lawsuit under the New York Adult Survivors Act, alleging the New York City mayor assaulted her in a car in 1993.

A New York City woman claims that Mayor Eric Adams sexually assaulted her three decades ago, masturbating in front of her when she turned down his advances,

“She knew that filing this lawsuit would cause her significant personal challenges but she did so nevertheless, because she believes sexual abusers must be held to account, no matter who they are. Her fearlessness and quest for justice are as inspiring as they are important.” In her complaint, Beach-Mathura, a former police administrative aide, says she approached Adams, then a Transit Police officer, at their stationhouse in 1993 and asked for his help with a “workplace issue,” Beach-Mathura’s complaint states. She was up for a promotion that seemed to have stalled, and Beach-Mathura says she hoped Adams, the president of the Guardians Association, a fraternal organization for Black cops, might be able to find out what was holding things up.

Beach-Mathura was happy to not only be getting a hand from Adams, but a ride back to her place, as well, the suit goes on. However, things turned ugly along the way, it alleges. Adams—who was on-duty and armed—took a stunned Beach-Mathura’s hand and “placed it on his penis,” according to the complaint. He then allegedly demanded oral sex. When she refused, Beach-Mathura alleges Adams masturbated to completion “and ejaculated on her.” Then, instead of taking her home, as promised, he dropped Beach-Mathura off at a subway station and drove away, the complaint states.
