New York City taxpayers won't bear the costs for Eric Adams' criminal defense as he faces federal bribery charges, confirmed by the city's deputy mayor.
Alex Spiro, representing Adams in the criminal case, has been billing the city for a separate civil sexual assault lawsuit at a significantly reduced rate.
Federal prosecutors accuse Adams of soliciting bribes from the Turkish government in luxury travel perks, leading to five criminal counts against him.
Spiro dismissed the criminal charges as 'the airline upgrade corruption case' and announced plans to file a motion to dismiss soon.
