The unsealing of the 57-page indictment against Mayor Eric Adams marks an unprecedented situation for New York City, where no sitting mayor has faced such criminal charges.
While former mayors like James Walker and William O'Dwyer have faced scandals, the current climate surrounding Mayor Adams's indictment creates an atmosphere of uncertainty in City Hall.
Despite the scandal, City Councilman Shaun Abreu emphasized that the Council remained focused on their duties, describing the mood as somber but committed to their work.
Mayor Adams has firmly stated his innocence regarding the charges against him, dismissing the indictment as simply a 'story' and framing previous investigations as merely a 'review'.
