HE'S CONNECTING THE DOTS AND TAKING A LOOK AT WHO'S WHO IN THE SCANDAL THAT IS ROCKING THE CITY GOVERNMENT. ANTOINE. >> NATASHA. KEEPING A CLOSE INNER CIRCLE IS COMMONPLACE IN POLITICS. WE ALL KNOW THIS. BUT THE OPTICS RIGHT NOW ON SOME OF MAYOR ADAMS INNER CIRCLE SAYS HE EVEN SAYS IT CAUGHT HIM OFF GUARD. >> I WAS AS SURPRISED AS YOU TO LEARN OF THESE INQUIRIES, AND I TAKE THEM EXTREMELY SERIOUSLY. >> THE BREAKDOWN OF THOSE BEING INVESTIGATED BY THE FBI READS LIKE A WHO'S WHO OF THE MAYOR'S INNER CIRCLE. LAST WEEK, THE FBI RAIDED THE UPTOWN HOME OF FIRST DEPUTY MAYOR SHEENA WRIGHT. WRIGHT SHARES THE HOME WITH DAVID BANKS, NEW YORK CITY SCHOOLS CHANCELLOR DAVID BANKS IS THE BROTHER OF PHILIP BANKS, THE THIRD DEPUTY MAYOR FOR PUBLIC SAFETY.
