New York City First Deputy Mayor Sheena Wright is stepping down from her position, reports say, as Mayor Eric Adams' administration faces more turmoil.
New York City First Deputy Mayor Sheena Wright reportedly resigned from her position Tuesday after the FBI raided her home in early September, becoming the latest senior official to depart Mayor Eric Adams’ administration as he faces federal corruption charges. Wright’s reported resignation comes just days after her husband, New York City Public Schools Chancellor David Banks, announced that he would resign earlier than expected in October.
'Obviously, a lot of them are trying to make the point ‘oh I was going to leave anyway’ -- but these are all the people from tightest inner circle and this is the team he put together to run the city and for them to be leaving prematurely when he would normally be gearing up for re-election, I don’t see how you can argue that this is business as usual. It’s very obvious something heavy is going on.
