Judge dismisses corruption case against NYC Mayor Eric Adams
The judge dismissed the case with prejudice, meaning the criminal charges against Mayor Adams can never be refiled. The judge did not take a position if Adams was innocent or guilty, or if the evidence was strong or weak. While the mayor voiced satisfaction, the judge was critical of the Justice Department and its reasons for dropping the corruption case. NBC New York’s Jonathan Dienst reports.
