According to NBC News, Trump’s Department of Justice has ordered federal prosecutors in New York to drop corruption charges against Mayor Eric Adams, a senior Justice Department official said Monday.
The dismissal, without prejudice, allows charges to be refiled later. Prosecutors will file a formal dismissal request, subject to judicial review.
Adams’ attorney, Alex Spiro, called the decision a victory, reiterating the mayor’s innocence.
Adams, charged with bribery and wire fraud, pleaded not guilty, claiming political motivation.
Critics labeled the dismissal “transparent corruption.”
