Winnie Greco, a campaign aide for New York Mayor Eric Adams, apparently tried to slip money to reporter Katie Honan inside a bag of chips following an event related to campaigning in Harlem. The reporter discovered a red envelope with at least one $100 bill and several $20 bills in the bag.
Honan returned the money after realizing the intent. Following the incident, a campaign spokesperson for the mayor announced Greco’s suspension from the campaign, stating that Adams had no prior knowledge of the matter. Greco has already had a controversial history, previously resigning amid investigations and being linked to fundraising methods deemed illegal.
