Reports indicate that Greco allegedly handed a reporter a bag of potato chips filled with cash, prompting accusations of bribery. Following this revelation, Greco has been suspended from her campaign role. The unusual method of delivering cash has raised eyebrows, with some claiming it was a tradition rather than a bribe. Mayor Adams has denied knowledge of the incident, while the campaign grapples with the implications of this cash-for-coverage scandal.
