Carone, Brother, and Donors Arrested

Frank Carone, former top aide to Mayor Eric Adams and now a lobbyist, was arrested Wednesday in Manhattan amid bribery and fraud charges. His younger brother Anthony, business partner, and Queens hotel owner Yan Po Zhu — along with her employee Crystal Chen — were also taken into custody. Zhu and Chen previously donated thousands to Adams’ campaign, and Carone’s arrest follows months of federal scrutiny over his real estate ventures and co-founded insurance company, all unfolding as Adams’ mayoral term remains clouded by corruption allegations.
