New York Mayor Eric Adams appeared in federal court in Manhattan for a hearing related to a corruption case that could lead to a lengthy prison sentence if he is found guilty. The defense team is seeking to dismiss at least one charge and hold the government accountable for leaks of confidential information.
During the hearing, Adams arrived early, wearing a navy blue suit and greeted supporters before taking his place at the defense table. Prosecutors indicated the possibility of additional charges against other defendants in the ongoing investigation.
