Acting U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York Danielle Sassoon said she was "baffled" by the DOJ's decision to drop the charges against Eric Adams.

Sassoon said federal prosecutors planned to charge Adams with destroying evidence and instructing others to do so, which would have added to his case.
