Only a small number of employees at the Public Integrity Section will remain.

Cases currently assigned to the unit will be reassigned to U.S. attorneys' offices across the country.

Several officials resigned from the division last month after the Justice Department’s second in command ordered prosecutors to drop corruption charges against New York City Mayor Eric Adams .
