Damian Williams, the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York and Manhattan’s top prosecutor, has announced his resignation, effective December 13, 2024, at 11:59 PM. Williams, known for his high-profile prosecutions, including cases involving New York City Mayor Eric Adams, Senator Bob Menendez, and Sean 'Diddy' Combs, stated that he is leaving the office at a time when it is performing at an exceptionally high level. His resignation raises questions about the future of ongoing cases, including federal corruption charges against Mayor Adams, who is also facing a challenging reelection campaign next year.
