<v Speaker 1>This is WBZ, Boston's news radio, redefining local.

2
00:00:06.160 --> 00:00:13.640
<v Speaker 2>News, sixty eight degrees in Boston at four o'clock. Good afternoon,

3
00:00:13.640 --> 00:00:16.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm Ben Parker. Here's what's happening. New York's mayor is

4
00:00:17.000 --> 00:00:22.320
<v Speaker 2>under indictment. Federal prosecutors say Mayor Eric Adams was involved

5
00:00:22.320 --> 00:00:25.000
<v Speaker 2>in illegal activities and he was for some time.

6
00:00:25.120 --> 00:00:28.640
<v Speaker 3>Mayor Adams engaged in a long running conspiracy in which

7
00:00:28.640 --> 00:00:33.240
<v Speaker 3>he solicited and knowingly accepted illegal campaign contributions.

8
00:00:32.560 --> 00:00:35.280
<v Speaker 2>In the US. Attorney Damian Williams says the charges against

9
00:00:35.320 --> 00:00:38.119
<v Speaker 2>Adams are connected to bribes from Turkish officials, and the

10
00:00:38.159 --> 00:00:41.520
<v Speaker 2>mayor funneled the money into his campaign as contributions and

11
00:00:41.560 --> 00:00:44.880
<v Speaker 2>also accepted at least one hundred thousand dollars in travel benefits.

12
00:00:44.920 --> 00:00:47.679
<v Speaker 2>The mayor is urging New Yorkers not to rush to judgment.

13
00:00:47.920 --> 00:00:52.119
<v Speaker 1>This is not surprising to us at all, the actions

14
00:00:52.119 --> 00:00:56.119
<v Speaker 1>that have unfolded over the last ten months.

15
00:00:56.359 --> 00:01:03.359
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the leak and terry the demonize. Adam says he

16
00:01:03.399 --> 00:01:05.840
<v Speaker 2>will remain in office while he fights his legal battles

17
00:01:05.840 --> 00:01:09.319
<v Speaker 2>and looks forward to defending himself. A guilty play in

<v Speaker 1>all out, full scale war, which could be devastating for

51
00:02:52.879 --> 00:02:56.319
<v Speaker 1>both sides. See sees it a diplomatic solution, not a

52
00:02:56.319 --> 00:02:59.400
<v Speaker 1>military one, can still be applied. It's the only way,

53
00:02:59.479 --> 00:03:02.759
<v Speaker 1>he says, to ensure that display civilians on both sides

54
00:03:02.759 --> 00:03:05.759
