1:27A U.S. judge dismissed corruption charges against New York City Mayor Eric Adams even as he said the Trump administration's argument that the case should be dropped because it was hindering the Democratic politician's help with an immigration crackdown ‘smacks of a bargain.’
Adams pleaded not guilty last September to charges of accepting bribes and illegal campaign contributions from Turkish officials in exchange for favors, including pressuring fire officials to let Turkey open a new Manhattan consulate despite safety concerns.
Speaking to reporters outside his Manhattan residence, Adams said he had done nothing wrong and that the case should not have been brought in the first place.
‘I am now happy that our city can finally close the book on this and focus solely on the future,’ Adams said.
