Council grills Adams lawyer nominee at nine hour hearing
Briefly

During a nine-hour meeting, Randy Mastro faced intense scrutiny from the City Council over his controversial nomination for city corporation counsel amid significant opposition.
Mastro's case record drew criticism, especially his representation of powerful figures like Governor Chris Christie during 'Bridgegate,' raising concerns about his prioritization of vulnerable New Yorkers.
Deputy Speaker Diana Ayala emphasized that Mastro has 'failed to make vulnerable New Yorkers a priority,' calling into question his commitment to serving the public interest.
Former Christie aide Bridget Ann Kelly described Mastro as someone you hire for political maneuvering, alleging that his work style reflects a tendency to threaten or intimidate others.
