Feds subpoena NYC Mayor Eric Adams’ head of asylum seeker services Molly Schaeffer

Sharing is Caring!

Federal authorities subpoenaed New York City’s head of asylum seeker services Friday — looking for records on migrant contracting as part of a probe into one of Mayor Eric Adams’ top aides, The Post has learned.

Molly Schaeffer, the low-profile director of the city’s Office of Asylum Seeker Operations, was hit with the information-sharing request by the feds at her Brooklyn home, according to law enforcement sources.

Sources said the subpoena is connected to an investigation into Timothy Pearson, a retired NYPD inspector who advises Adams on public safety – and one of a raft of top City Hall officials and mayoral allies who were raided by the feds Sept. 4.

It’s only the latest in a widening net of federal scrutiny circling Adams’ administration. No officials have been charged or accused of wrongdoing.
