‘The case is over’: Adams’ lawyer declares victory
SHARE

Mayor Eric Adams’ lawyer, Alex Spiro, held a press conference in New York on Wednesday to address the recent developments in the criminal case against the mayor. Spiro confidently declared that the case against Adams is now officially closed and will not be reopened, dismissing any concerns about the mayor being compromised or under President Donald Trump’s influence.

The decision to dismiss the corruption charges against Adams was made by the Justice Department, with acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove ordering Manhattan prosecutors to drop the case. The memo sent by Bove stated that the dismissal was based on the timing of the case before Adams’ reelection campaign and his ability to work with the federal government, rather than the strength of the evidence against him. Spiro emphasized that this decision was merely a formality and that there was never a strong case against Adams to begin with.

Adams, who had been indicted on five counts of bribery and conspiracy, maintained his innocence and was preparing to stand trial before the case was dismissed. Spiro addressed concerns raised by Adams’ opponents about the mayor’s alignment with Trump, stating that there was no agreement for Adams to cooperate with immigration officials in exchange for dropping the charges. He also clarified that he had never discussed the case with Trump and that the president had no role in facilitating the meeting with the Justice Department.

Despite the dismissal of the charges, Adams’ rivals and allies continue to question the implications of the Justice Department’s decision and its potential impact on the mayor’s political standing. Some speculate that Adams could still be vulnerable to federal charges if he does not align with Trump’s immigration policies. Spiro refuted claims that the case against Adams was politically motivated and instead criticized the former U.S. attorney for the Southern District, Damian Williams, for pursuing flimsy charges to boost his own reputation.

Spiro also dismissed the Southern District’s suggestion of bringing additional charges against Adams, labeling it as mere hype without any substantial evidence. He expressed willingness to release all the evidence in the case to prove Adams’ innocence. However, not everyone was convinced by Spiro’s defense, with former city comptroller Scott Stringer questioning Adams’ ability to answer to the people of New York City following the dismissal of the case.

In conclusion, Mayor Eric Adams’ lawyer remains confident in the closure of the criminal case against the mayor and continues to defend Adams’ innocence against any allegations of wrongdoing. The impact of the dismissal on Adams’ political career and relationship with President Trump remains a topic of debate among his opponents and allies.
