New York City Mayor Eric Adams was indicted last fall on bribery, fraud and other charges in Manhattan federal court.
A top federal prosecutor in New York and a senior Department of Justice official resigned Thursday after refusing a DOJ order to dismiss the pending criminal case against Mayor Eric Adams.
Danielle Sassoon, the acting U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, was the first to refuse to toss the case against Adams, who was indicted last fall, and who soon sought to curry favor with President Donald Trump, NBC News reported.
