Three more federal prosecutors who worked on the now-dismissed corruption case against Mayor Eric Adams have resigned.
Celia Cohen, Andrew Rohrbach and Derek Wikstrom are among the latest resignations.
They were previously placed on leave after refusing to follow orders to end the corruption probe.
They sent a letter to Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche on Tuesday, saying they felt pressured into admitting wrongdoing to have their jobs reinstated.
Adams was indicted last year on bribery charges, all of which were dismissed earlier this month.
