NEW YORK (Reuters) -Damian Williams, the top federal prosecutor in Manhattan who secured convictions of high-profile defendants including U.S. Senator Bob Menendez and crypto mogul Sam Bankman-Fried, announced on Monday that he will resign ahead of Donald Trump's return to the presidency.

Edward Kim, his current deputy, will succeed Williams on an acting basis as U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York.
