The mayor had previously said he did not remember ever meeting his accuser and his team has denied 'these outrageous allegations.'

Monday, March 18, 2024 8:33PMA lawsuit was filed in Manhattan Supreme Court on Monday against New York City Mayor Eric Adams, claiming he sexually assaulted a woman back in 1993.

At the time, Adams was an NYPD officer and president of the Police Guardians Association, which Beach-Mahura has also named in the suit. "I am proud to file this complaint on behalf of my client, a woman whose strength astonishes me," said Megan Goddard, Beach-Mahura's attorney. "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.
