Acting US Attorney for the SDNY Danielle Sassoon abruptly resigned on Thursday, just a few days after she was ordered to drop charges against NYC Mayor Eric Adams.
On Monday, the Trump Justice Department moved to drop federal charges against New York City Mayor Eric Adams.
“You are directed to dismiss” the case against Adams,” Emil Bove, Trump’s Acting Deputy Attorney General, wrote in a letter to the US Attorney’s Office in Manhattan, according to The New York Times.
