Seasoned litigator Randy Mastro, Mayor Eric Adams’ pick to be the city’s next chief attorney, went through the wringer on Tuesday, fielding heated questions from City Council members during a contentious hours-long hearing.
During the proceeding, council members questioned Mastro’s moral character and values based on his time working for former GOP Mayor Rudy Giuliani in the 1990s and several of his past cases as a private attorney.
