Adams’ attorney accuses feds of leaking witness identity, testimony to press

By Ethan Stark-Miller Posted on December 24, 2024

In a Tuesday legal filing, Mayor Eric Adams’ attorneys charged that federal prosecutors improperly leaked to the media the identity of a witness who testified before a grand jury and the content of their testimony in the criminal corruption case against the mayor.

Hizzoner’s attorney, Alex Spiro, requested that federal Judge Dale Ho hold an evidentiary hearing on the latest leaks. Spiro further asked the judge to halt all grand jury proceedings until the hearing is held and his motion is resolved. He also once again called for the court to impose sanctions on federal prosecutors “up to and including dismissal of the indictment.”
