‘There’s lots of lies’: Mayor Adams’ celebrity lawyer says feds have no case, accuses them of illegal press leaks

Mayor Eric Adams’ celebrity attorney Alex Spiro accused federal prosecutors Monday of bringing forth an indictment full of falsehoods — and breaking the law by leaking the case out to the press the night before the historic indictment was unsealed.

Alex Spiro, in a Sept. 30 news conference at his Manhattan offices, argued that the 57-page indictment charging Adams with conspiracy, bribery, soliciting foreign campaign donations, and wire fraud is “not a real case.” The news conference came on the heels of Adams’ legal team filing a motion requesting the federal court toss out the bribery charge against the mayor.
