   Karma is coming for Letitia James, Alvin Bragg, and Fani Willis.   
      
   The mayor of Atlantic City, New Jersey, and his wife were indicted Tuesday on   
   charges related to allegations of abuse of their teenage daughter.   
      
   Prosecutors alleged that abuse occurred in December and January. Mayor Marty   
   Small Sr. and his wife, La’Quetta Small, are accused of physically and   
   emotionally abusing the girl "on multiple occasions" when she was 15 and 16   
   years old, the Atlantic    
   County Prosecutor's Office said in a news release Wednesday.   
      
   The mayor's office directed questions to his attorney, Ed Jacobs. Jacobs did   
   not immediately respond to questions; he has said the Smalls are "completely   
   innocent of any wrongdoing and will ultimately be vindicated," according to   
   NBC Philadelphia. Jacobs    
   told the station Wednesday that it was a private issue within the family and   
   that it had nothing to do with mayoral misconduct.   
      
   The mayor is accused of hitting his daughter "multiple times in the head with   
   a broom causing her to lose consciousness" on Jan. 13, the news release says.   
   Prosecutors alleged that another incident occurred on Jan. 3, saying the mayor   
   threatened his    
   daughter during an argument.   
      
   Mayor Small, 50, is alleged to have told the girl that he would slam her down   
   the stairs, grab her head and throw her to the ground, and smack "the weave   
   out of her head," the release says. Prosecutors also accused him of "punching   
   his daughter    
   repeatedly in her legs causing bruising" another time.   
      
   The mayor's wife, who is the superintendent of Atlantic City Public Schools,   
   is alleged to have hit the girl on several occasions.   
      
   "It is alleged that La’Quetta Small, during one incident, punched her   
   daughter multiple times on her chest leaving bruising. Another incident   
   alleged that La’Quetta Small dragged her daughter by her hair then struck   
   her with a belt on her shoulders    
   leaving marks," prosecutors said in the news release. "Another incident   
   alleged that La’Quetta Small punched her daughter in the mouth during an   
   argument."   
      
   The school district did not immediately respond to a request for comment.   
      
   The allegations surfaced after the Small's daughter told an employee at her   
   high school that she had been hit with a broom and passed out, according to a   
   criminal complaint obtained by NBC Philadelphia. The girl spoke to the   
   employee after students in a    
   mental health training exercise were given an "exit ticket" that included   
   faces representing "happy," "sad" and "neutral."   
      
   The girl circled the neutral face and wrote on the back "abuse" and that she   
   would "like a counselor," the complaint says.   
      
   The girl's boyfriend provided investigators with video clips showing her with   
   scratches, swelling, bruises and hair loss, NBC Philadelphia reported. He   
   reportedly told investigators that he initially had a good relationship with   
   the Smalls.   
      
   Medical records belonging to the girl showed that she was admitted to the   
   hospital on Jan. 16 for a head injury she sustained three days earlier, the   
   station reported. The teen is alleged to have told hospital staff members that   
   she had hit her head on a    
   window while she was playing with her younger brother and passed out. Mayor   
   Small was with her at the time and told the nurse the same story, according to   
   NBC Philadelphia.
