On February 10,
2025 DOJ's Emil Bove - a
former SDNY prosecutor - wrote
to acting US Attorney Danielle
Sassoon ordering her to move
to dismiss the indictment: "You are directed,
as authorized by the Attorney
General, to dismiss the
pending charges in United
States v. Adams, No. 24 Cr.
556 (SDNY) as soon as is
practicable."As of March 10 it
is ongoing.
On December 23
the prosecutors wrote in that
Erden Arkan, "Businessman-5"

intends to plead guilty.
On January 10
Arkan pled guilty, Inner City
Press was there and later
asked his lawyer if Arkan will
testify. There was no answer,
but sentencing was put off to
August 15, after Adams' trial,
with zero to six month
