Four deputies to New York’s mayor, Eric Adams, resigned on Monday as the growing chaos following a justice department request to drop corruption charges against him, widely seen as a reward for his help with Donald Trump’s immigration agenda, engulfs his three-year-old administration.
According to reports, four of Adams’ deputies – the first deputy mayor, Maria Torres Springer, deputy mayor for operations, Meera Joshi, deputy mayor for health and human services, Anne Williams-Isom, and deputy mayor for public safety, Chauncey Parker – said they were stepping down.
