..., DC Mayor Marion Barry famously beat the rap in a drug case spite of compelling proof on video.

B!@#$ set me up.

Just 7 people?

They make it sound like it is a million quitting in protest...

Grok says there are just over 5000 Federal prosecutors, so 7 is nothing. Probably an average week’s turnover.

This is gross hypocrisy. They have been using “the prosecutorial power to influence other citizens, much less elected officials, in this way” for DECADES.

Adams is not accused of gross corruption. He MAY be guilty of the minor fraud that almost every elected official in large cities is guilty of - getting nice treatment from someone who wants him to just DO HIS JOB and cut the crap city agencies give because THEY want to be bribed!

If the mayor had played ball with Biden, there would have been no charges. When he objected to the illegals, the hammer fell. And these supposedly pure, caring, honest DAs went along with Biden.

Good riddance!

Sometimes in criminal ivestifations and criminal trials, deals are made. Used to be called plea bargains.

Only a part of the article is applicable: "Any assistant US attorney would know that our laws and traditions ...." allow for dismissals and reduced prosecution used in order to investigate and prosecute BIGGER FISH.

The bigger fish to fry are fleeing the scene, fearing to be seen.

Dems don’t like it when their political, corrupt lawfare gets stopped.

Good bye to bad rubbish

Notice that the sudden interest in Adams only came from the Feds after he broke with Biden over illegal immigration.

Barry also had an array of civil rights icons, reverends, and black community leaders sitting behind him at trial.

Let me see, federal prosecutors NEVER plea bargain away a prosecution in order to get help on a different prosecution, never, right?? /sarc

And what exactly is the prosecution of criminal illegals in New York City? A priorty over the Adams case is the way the DOJ sees it.
