Fed prosecutors have a 97% conviction rate. The dude is gonna role a 100-sided die and needs a 98 or higher lol. He is done.
I imagine for a NYC mayor their dotted their i's and crossed their t's extra careful, he might need a nat 100 here.
As an aside, I would like to speak with the DM, because WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON.
Meet it you beat it, he needs a 97 or higher. Either way, yeah, no, he’s cooked.
Nah it's a 0-index die
Well damn, get fucked.
He's just doing normal cop stuff. Now, let's elect a prosecutor.
If you're against corruption I have a strategy you can use: vote for the viable candidate least likely to accept foreign money for influence.
I'm way ahead of you. I don't vote for politicians that accept corporate money, be it foreign or domestic.
Ah, the "chuck it in a garbage bin" strategy. Very effective.
That's what we do with trash. But, some of the bits down at the bottom seem like they can be recycled.
That's exactly what I said "ah so normal cop shit"
Enjoy your prosecutor.
Is this supposed to be some jab at Harris?

It's always the ones you most suspect.
Adams has been a lot of fun to watch. It’ll be even more fun watching him go to jail. Nakedly corrupt ftw.
I hope he gets the book thrown at him.

I remember when he bulldoze a bunch of people‘s vehicles… and part of me was like “Cool, riding an ATV in Central Park for fun probably should result in your vehicle getting crushed…” and the little voice in the back of my head says this is a bit over the top, even for a publicity stunt. 
Need to listen to that little voice more often 😅
In exchange for the bribes, Adams took actions that appeared to benefit Turkey’s leaders, including expediting the fire safety inspection at a consulate building and not releasing a statement on Armenian Genocide Remembrance Day, according to the indictment.
I'm kind of shocked that a (friendly) foreign government would buy a mayor for these seemingly trivial things.
