Just 24 hours after NYC Mayor Eric Adams pleaded not guilty to federal corruption charges, he visited a church in Queens.
Adams attended the Greater Allen A.M.E. Cathedral of New York in Jamaica, Queens, on Saturday where he was scheduled to speak at the pastoral inauguration. When Adams walked in, he avoided reporter questions but did give a brief statement talking about his faith and spirituality. "Right now, the power of prayer, and so I do a lot of praying, and I’m looking forward when I leave here, to go on and continue to do what I do moving our city forward," Adams said.
"He's continuing to do his duty as mayor and not be side tracked by the issue at hand," a churchgoer said.On Friday night, Adams visited a senior center in Harlem, maintaining his innocence and continuing to do his job, despite being criminally charged with multiple calls for his resignation. Civil and Criminal Defense attorney Donte Mills said the only thing the mayor cannot do is travel outside the country and that's because his passport has been seized due to charges.
