They also cited the "extraordinary" amount of leaked information from prosecutors that they argued would have violated Adams' right to a fair trial; noting in particular a Feb. 12 resignation letter by former acting U.S. Attorney Danielle Sassoon, which lawyers said would have "destroyed whatever presumption of innocence Mayor Adams had left."
