CoinVoice has learned that, according to Jin Ten reports, Manhattan District Attorney Damian Williams announced that he plans to resign on December 13, and his deputy Edward Kim will temporarily take over other duties.

After Trump was elected President of the United States on November 5, he announced that he would nominate former SEC Chairman Jay Clayton to manage the Manhattan District Attorney's Office. The Southern District of New York is known for its independent status and has handled many high-profile financial fraud cases.

During Williams' term, he completed the prosecution of the founder of the original cryptocurrency exchange FTX, SBF, and the founder of the family office Archegos, Bill Hwang. [Original link]
