Justice Department lawyers met with New York City Mayor Eric Adams' defense team and federal prosecutors on Friday to discuss dropping the corruption case against him, a source tells CBS News.

Returning to the public spotlight Thursday after several days dealing with a health problem, Mayor Eric Adams said he has endured a “scary” week. Without going into specifics, the mayor told gathered faith leaders at the New York Public Library’s annual interfaith breakfast that “last week was a scary week for me” and said he has turned to God frequently over the past few days.
