The court to overturn the corruption charges against me!

The Mayor of New York, Eric Adams, asked a federal judge on Wednesday to close the case for corruption against him, with allegations of violations by the Prosecution, even after the Department of Justice seeks to overturn the allegations against the Democrat who runs for a second term.

In the documents submitted to the Manhattan Federal Court, Mr. Adams' lawyers claim the prosecution's violation following a letter that the then prosecutor, Danielle Sassoon, sent to the Prosecutor General of the United States, explaining why the charges should not be rejected.

Among other things, in her letter, Ms. Sassoon resigned as she could not accept the guidance of the acting by -duty, Emil Bove, to topple the allegations against the mayor two weeks ago. Mr. Bove accepted her resignation.

Mr. Bove had written a letter to Mrs. Sassoon, stressing Mr. Adams' importance to help President Trump's advantages in law enforcement, especially in the fight against illegal immigration and violent crime. He also said the allegations were interfering in this year's election race for the post of mayor.

In the documents filed Wednesday in court, Mr. Adams' lawyers say that the publication of Mrs. Sassoon's resignation letter to Ms. Bondi was « an extraordinary multitude of leakage of the internal correspondence of the Department of Justice » after Mr. Bove sent the written directive to Mrs.

Defense lawyers said Ms. Sassoon informed Chief Prosecutor Bondi that prosecutors were planning to add a charge against Mr. Adams for obstruction of justice by replacing the indictment. Lawyers say prosecutors made « a false accusation » that Mr. Adams and his lawyers had offered to assist President Trump's administration in exchange for the dismissal.

The lawsuit filed in September by Prosecutors in Manhattan against Mr. Adams accuses him of receiving over $ 100,000 illegal contributions to the campaign and travel tickets from a Turkish official and others seeking influence while Democrat Adams was a senior leader in Bruklin.

Mr. Adams faces numerous opponents in the preliminary elections within the Democrats in June. He has insisted he is innocent.

Defense lawyers say the public exposure of the unusual internal war in the Department of Justice had violated Mr. Adams's constitutional rights and interfered with his ability to just a fair judgment.

They say the flow of information runs counter to the court rules, including the long -standing policies of the Department of Justice to prevent violations of the prosecution.

The Associated Press news agency has made a request for comment to the Department of Justice. Mr. Bove and two lawyers of the Department of Justice are currently trying to make the Manhattan judge close the case. The judge, who has canceled a hearing in April, has appointed an external adviser to help him decide how he will act over the coming weeks./voa/
