Even though the Trump Justice Department has already moved to dismiss the political corruption indictment against Eric Adams, the New York City mayor’s lawyers have now filed a motion asking Judge Dale Ho to dismiss the case based on alleged prosecutorial misconduct.
They cite the February 12 letter to Trump administration Attorney General Pam Bondi from Danielle Sassoon, the former Trump-appointed interim United States attorney for the Southern District of New York (SDNY), in addition to a second letter — this one directed to Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove — penned by the former lead SDNY prosecutor on the Adams case, Hagan Scotten.
