Multiple Prosecutors Resign in Protest Over Eric Adams Case
A series of resignations among federal prosecutors have emerged in connection with the corruption case against New York City Mayor Eric Adams. Three prosecutors have departed, citing pressure from the Department of Justice (DOJ) to confess to wrongdoing, which they adamantly deny. The resigning attorneys claimed they were asked to express regret for their actions, despite maintaining their innocence. This development has sparked controversy within the DOJ and among legal circles, as more federal prosecutors have joined the wave of resignations, expressing their refusal to admit to actions they do not feel were improper.
