“Nine New York City contractors have been indicted for allegedly bribing NYCHA superintendents for "micro purchase" contracts.

"These defendants allegedly tried to seek favors from NYCHA superintendents by offering them bribes, corrupting a process meant to ensure contracts are fairly awarded," Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez said. "I commend the employees who came forward to report the bribe offers, kicking off this investigation. My office will continue to work closely with DOI to make sure that bribery schemes and other forms of corruption are investigated and prosecuted."“
