Adams Accuses Former Prosecutor of Bringing Case to Help His Own Career
Briefly

Mayor Eric Adams’ lawyer accused former U.S. attorney Damian Williams of politicizing the corruption case against Adams, claiming it was part of Williams' ambitions for higher office.
In a letter, attorney Alex Spiro described the indictment as "meritless," alleging it was a ploy by Williams to enhance his political profile as he eyes a run for office.
Spiro pointed out that Williams' recent opinion piece indicated a broader political agenda, stirring speculation in New York's political circles about his potential candidacy.
Williams' opinion article, which did not directly reference Adams, critiqued the city's leadership and ethical state, fueling discussions about his aspirations for a political position.
