Months after a federal corruption indictment against Mayor Eric Adams of New York was dropped, some of his allies remain under investigation or have been charged with crimes.

Jinchao Wei provided a Chinese intelligence officer with defense and weapons abilities of U.S. warships, including their vulnerabilities, prosecutors said.

Among those expected to surrender in the coming days is a close friend of Mayor Eric Adams whom the mayor installed in a powerful city position.
