Eric Adams was indicted in September on charges related to bribery, wire fraud, conspiracy and soliciting campaign contributions from foreign nationals in exchange for political favors.

In a 78 -page opinion, Judge Dale Ho said his hands were essentially tied even though he has concerns about the Justice Department’s reasons to dismiss the case he could not force them to prosecute a defendant.

He said DOJ 's position implies public officials may receive special treatment if they go along with political priorities.

Rev. Al Sharpton says the perception that Adams is controlled by the White House should now be gone.

Rev. Sharpton : “It clearly says that now whatever he does, now he’ll be judged on his own decisions.” The judge said his decision should not be read as an opinion on the allegations against the mayor.
