Martin, who has been New York City Mayor Eric Adams' top advisor for years, announced her retirement on Sunday. The announcement came as Manhattan prosecutors investigating corruption allegations against her have reportedly presented evidence to a grand jury.

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- The highest-ranking aide, and longtime confidant, for Mayor Eric Adams has announced a sudden resignation, according to a new report from Politico. Ingrid Lewis-Martin, who had been with the Mayor since early on in his political career, abruptly resigned on Sunday, effective immediately, according to Politico.

She has been fiercely loyal to the mayor, while sparring with other staff, and recently had her phone seized by investigators.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams‘s closest adviser resigned on Sunday as the powerful leader faces federal corruption charges and a trial in the spring. Ingrid Lewis-Martin became the latest person in Adams’s orbit to resign after investigations have riddled the mayor’s office.

Prosecutors in the office of the Manhattan district attorney, Alvin Bragg, have been presenting evidence at least in part focused on the aide, Ingrid Lewis-Martin.

A grand jury in Lower Manhattan has been hearing evidence against Lewis Martin and could vote on an indictment as soon as this week.

Martin, who was subpoenaed in late September as part of an ongoing federal investigation into the Adams administration, said she is retiring to focus on her family.
