FBI Conducts Sweeping Raids Targeting Former Adams Aide, NYPD Officials

Jun 24, 2026·2 min read

NEW YORK (VINnews) — FBI agents and NYPD investigators carried out a series of raids Wednesday morning targeting former top City Hall and police officials as part of separate corruption investigations.


Among those arrested was Frank Carone, a former senior adviser to Mayor Eric Adams, whose home was searched before he was taken into custody in connection with an alleged bribery scheme. The charges were expected to be unsealed later in federal court.

In a separate probe, authorities executed search warrants at the homes of former Chief of Department Jeffrey Maddrey, former Assistant Chief James McCarthy and former top NYPD spokesman Tarik Sheppard.

The investigations are examining allegations that include bribery, misconduct, promotions, assignments and financial practices involving current and former NYPD officials, according to reports.

Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch said the searches were conducted jointly by the NYPD’s Internal Affairs Bureau, the FBI and the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York.

No charges were immediately announced against the former police officials. The investigations remain ongoing.
